Bucephalandra sp. Brownie Blue Mini
Description
The brownie blue is an extremely colorful Bucephalandra, which derives its name mainly from its color tones. The blue is a slightly darker variant of the brownie. So far nothing is known about the exact origin. Like many of its conspecifics, it will have developed as a rheophyte in streams.
History
Like all Bucephalandra plants, the Bucephalandra Brownie blue has its origin in Borneo and has been cultivated with good success for some time.
Look
Bucephalandra Brownie blue is a medium-sized aquatic plant of its kind, which is particularly noticeable through its splendor of colors. Their leaves are geometrically more elliptical in shape, with softer, more pronounced waves on the leaf edge.
The petiolus extends to the tip of the leaf, tapering well. In terms of color, I show it in dark blue nuances with shimmering oil cells on the leaf surface.
Maintenance
All Bucephalandra belong to the genus Epiphytes (perch plants). So Bucephalandra ideally needs a hard surface (hardscape) such as stones, bones, roots etc. in order to be able to wrap their rhizome (stem axis system) around them. It is fixed with a special thread or adhesive that we offer for you here in our Buce2Love shop.
Bucephalandras are otherwise very undemanding in their keeping and care and can therefore be described as frugal and therefore particularly suitable for newcomers to the aquarium hobby. They are robust, require a medium level of illumination (appropriate lighting) and a temperature like in their home on Borneo, which is between 20 and 28 ° C. Ideally, you should ensure that there is sufficient water movement because they love it.
Bucephalandra Brownie blue does not require any special care and can be handled like all Bucephalandras.
It is advisable to plant them in pools that have already been retracted.
Particularities
Every Bucephalandra is actually something special and, due to its biodiversity, is so popular and sought after in the aquarium hobby. Bucephalandra naturally grows very slowly, so that the plants become real rarities and thus a collector's item that you can have a lot of fun with. Who doesn't enjoy the calming effect of a local water landscape ?!
Our Buce2Love team knows how to look at the photos, especially for newcomers. Since the name sp. (spec) and there could be disagreements in the genre, as there is as yet no scientific standard catalog that has universal validity.
