Common Name: Cryptocoryne Albida Costata
Crypt plants are a popular choice for beginner and experienced aquarium hobbyists. The leaves can range from bright green to bronze-red under high light. Although it is not exactly rare, this plant can sometimes be hard to find in most local fish stores.
Cryptocoryne Costata does best with moderate light. It can be propagated through cutting the runners. A healthy and mature plant can spread quickly, so it can be a good idea to trim its runners periodically. If you would like to replant, simply tuck the runners into the substrate.
