Bucephalandra sp. Lamandau Mini
Description
The Lamandau Mini is a rather smaller aquatic plant and has a flatter growth. Your name is likely to come from the province of Lamandau in southwest Borneo. Small but nice, because its leaves are anything but sparse. On the contrary, its growth is quite branched, so that it grows low but bushy due to its many shoot heads. Because of these properties, it is also very suitable for smaller aquariums.
History
Like all Bucephalandra plants, the Bucephalandra Lamandau Mini has its origin in Borneo and has been cultivated with great success for some time.
Look
Bucephalandra Lamandau Mini is a small aquatic plant that has a flat and creeping habit. It grows branched, which makes its overall appearance appear wild and bushy. Its leaves are only slightly wavy and have a deep green to bluish color. With appropriate lighting, it shimmers in beautiful color nuances. Its fine white dots, which look a bit as if they had been dusted with sugar crystals, are also impressive. A small but nice eye-catcher in the aquarium!
Maintenance
All Bucephalandra belong to the genus Epiphytes (perch plants). So Bucephalandra ideally needs a hard surface (hardscape) such as stones, bones, roots, etc. to be able to wrap their rhizome (stem axis system) around them. It is fixed with a special thread or adhesive, which we offer for you to order 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 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 Lamandau Mini does not require any special care and can be handled like all Bucephalandras. It is advisable to plant them in basins that are already in place.
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.
