Tropica 1-2 Grow Bucephalandra Mini Needle Leaf

attach to wood/rock

In nature, Bucephalandra usually grows on rocks or wood in rivers and streams - much like Anubias, which they resemble regarding use and care in the aquarium. Because of the popularity this plant has been dramatically reduced in its natural habitat (most Bucephalandra on the market have been taken from the wild). 

This miniature plant is probably a type of Bucephalandra pygmaea, which generally colonises larger rocks and stones in its natural habitat. It is often also found in a community with larger growing species of Bucephalandra. The 'Mini Needle Leaf' variety is extremely slow-growing and is especially suitable for delicate aquascaping landscapes in nano aquariums. Like all Bucephalandra species, it is easy and simple to care for.

 Similar to Anubias they are slow growing and should be attached to rocks or wood.
