Description
Bucephalandra is a rare and beautiful epiphyte from Borneo, producing small, dark green to blue-green leaves with a distinctive shimmering quality that catches the light. This nano piece combines Bucephalandra with aquarium moss on a small piece of driftwood, creating a compact planted feature with exceptional visual quality well suited to nano aquariums, shrimp tanks, and detailed aquascapes.
Bucephalandra grows in low to medium light without CO2 injection and is tolerant of a wide range of water conditions. It is slow-growing but long-lived and eye-catching even as a small specimen. The moss fills in around it naturally, adding a soft texture that complements the distinct Bucephalandra leaves. Both plants are fully shrimp-safe.
The plants are pre-established on the driftwood so no further attachment is needed — simply rinse and place. Sized for aquariums of 20 litres and above, this combination of Bucephalandra and moss on natural wood is a classic nano aquascape choice that adds a premium touch to any set-up.
