Bucephalandra Velvet 3
Bucephalandra Velvet 3
Bucephalandra Velvet 3 Color is a small, low-growing Buce variant that has narrow, ruffled leaves of all different colors. Due to its small size, it's best planted in the foreground to midground. It can be propagated by separating the rhizome gently and attaching it to driftwood and rocks using super glue gel or thread.
It thrives under low to moderate lighting and adapts well to various water parameters. Bucephalandra is a rhizome plant which means it does prefer to be buried in the substrate. It can be either tied or glued to driftwood or rock. If placed in the substrate, ensure only a portion of the plant is under the substrate while keeping the rhizome exposed, burying the rhizome will kill the plant.
