The Assorted Bucephalandra Basket is the ultimate solution for hobbyists seeking variety, quality, and quantity for large-scale aquascaping projects. Each basket is approximately 10" x 13" in size and contains a diverse, random assortment of small to medium-sized specimens, including healthy mini clumps and hardy rhizomes of various species. Highly versatile, these assorted plants can be grown submerged or emersed, usually attached to hardscape such as driftwood or rocks rather than being buried in traditional aquarium substrate. This is a value pack for filling the midground of freshwater aquascapes, terrariums, or paludariums, where the established plants will eventually reveal a stunning tapestry of reds, blues, and purples within your planted tank.
Please note that all baskets contain a mix of different species in mini clumps and plant sizes. After the buce is planted and establishes in your tank, new leaf growth can display beautiful reds, blues, and purples. Bucephalandra included in the assorted basket cannot be customized. Basket container is not included.
Key Features & Notes
- These baskets are designed to provide massive coverage at a reduced price point, making them the most cost-effective way to heavily plant a new setup.
- Every basket is a unique "mystery" assortment of Bornean flora, offering a natural, wild look with varying leaf shapes and textures.
- These bulk portions are only available during special occasions and in strictly limited quantities; once they are gone, they may not return for months.
- While the initial specimens are assorted "workhorse" portions, they will develop premium iridescent colors and robust foliage once they acclimate to your specific water parameters.
Important Disclaimer: Our Bucephalandra baskets contain healthy, small clumps, leftover portions, and rhizomes of assorted species, perfect for filling out your aquascape. These plants are not top-grade specimens, which is reflected in the price, but they will grow and thrive once established, displaying vibrant colors. Due to the variety, species cannot be identified or customized, making each basket a unique assortment.
Care Tips & Preparation
- Bucephalandra is an epiphytic plant that should be attached to rocks or driftwood
. Never bury the rhizome in substrate, as this will cause the plant to rot and melt.
- Avoid making drastic changes to your water parameters or lighting. Unstable conditions are the primary cause of leaf melt in new specimens.
- While this plant is hardy and low-maintenance, CO2 injection will yield much faster growth. We recommend researching your specific water chemistry to ensure your plant thrives.
- Final size and coloration depend entirely on your specific aquarium conditions. Please note that photos are a representation, and individual plants may vary.
- Please research appropriately to ensure your plant thrives.
