✂️ Care

Do not plant the rhizome too deep in the substrate. When replanting or changing water, 'crypt-melt' can occur — the leaves turn yellow and die off. This is normal and the plant almost always recovers within a few weeks.

💡 Planter's tip

The wavy leaf edges add extra texture — beautiful when planted in a group in the foreground or midground, or combined with other Cryptocoryne species.

❓ Frequently asked questions

What is 'crypt-melt' and should I be worried?
Crypt-melt is a natural reaction to change (replanting, different water parameters). The leaves yellow and die off, but the rhizome remains alive and the plant grows back within a few weeks.

My plant arrived yellow or limp — is that normal?
Yes, this is transport stress and almost always temporary. Give the plant 1–2 weeks to acclimatize.

Is this plant suitable for a shrimp tank?
Yes, completely shrimp-friendly.
