Bucephalandra sp. Micro
Description
The Bucephalandra Micro is a smaller aquatic plant and has a flatter habit. This is precisely why your name was chosen. A small nano plant that can be positioned almost anywhere in the aquarium thanks to its small size. Despite its small size, it grows very dense and full with its small leaflets. 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 Micro has its origin in Borneo and has been cultivated with good success for some time.
Look
Bucephalandra Micro is a very small aquatic plant with low growth. Its leaflets are small, but grow very dense and bushy, so that it looks very full and gorgeous. Their colors range from a delicate green to a deep dark green. Due to its small and flat nature, it can be positioned almost anywhere in the aquarium. Due to its natural appearance, it contributes to a great authenticity in the recreated water landscape.
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 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 Micro does not require any special care and, like all Bucephalandra, can be handled. It is advisable to plant them in basins that have already been retracted.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 ?!
