✂️ Care
Plant Cryptocoryne nurii in a nutrient-rich substrate. The plant may temporarily lose leaves after planting (Crypt-meltdown) — this is normal, and the plant will recover from the rhizome. Softer water promotes the best color development. Regularly add liquid plant fertilizer, such as Sera Florena.
💡 Planter tip
Combine Cryptocoryne nurii with other Cryptocoryne species for a varied and low-maintenance Crypt-aquarium.
