Cryptocoryne beckettii - AQ075

Cryptocoryne beckettii is a popular and hardy aquatic plant, valued for its beautiful, dark green to reddish-brown, lance-shaped leaves. It is perfect for midground placement in aquariums, adding color and texture to any aquascape. Cryptocoryne beckettii is highly adaptable and can thrive in a variety of water conditions, making it an excellent choice for beginners and seasoned aquarists alike. It tolerates a wide range of pH and can grow in low-light conditions, though it will display more vibrant colors and faster growth under moderate light and with CO2 supplementation. Like many Cryptocoryne species, it may experience a "melt" phase where the leaves die back before regrowing stronger as the plant adapts to new conditions. Once established, Cryptocoryne beckettii is a slow to moderate grower that requires minimal maintenance and provides a lush, natural look to aquariums.
