Bucephalandra sp. Venus Mini
Description
The Venus Mini is a small aquatic plant whose name can be traced back to the goddess of love in Roman mythology, which is historically always associated with a certain sublimity. This is how our Bucephalandra Venus Mini appears. It appears to be a bit brighter, more delicate and, thanks to its slight shimmer, also more majestic. Otherwise it has the same attributes as the Venus Classic.
History
The Bucephalandra Venus Mini, like all Bucephalandra plants, has its origin in Borneo and has been used for some time
cultivated with good results.
Look
Bucephalandra Venus Mini is of a smaller size and is particularly characterized by its more delicate and softer appearance. It has geometrically elliptical leaves that are only slightly wavy. The petiolus is less pronounced in Venus, which is why it looks less prominent than other of its conspecifics. The shade is a little lighter.
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, 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, between 20 and 28 ° C. Ideally, you should ensure that there is sufficient water movement because they love it.
Bucephalandra Venus Mini does not require any special care and can be handled like all Bucephalandras. It is advisable to plant them in basins that have already been retracted.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 also 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.
