1. How do I plant the varieties in the Potted Buce Starter Pack?
Remove each plant from its pot and gently clear away the rockwool matrix. Attach the individual plants directly to driftwood or rocks using aquarium-safe super glue gel, thread, or fishing line. Always keep the horizontal rhizomes above the substrate to prevent rotting.
2. Can I request specific Bucephalandra varieties in my pack?
Because packs are curated based on current greenhouse inventory to guarantee maximum health and freshness, we are unable to accept requests for specific species. However, every pack is guaranteed to include at least 5 distinct, high-quality Bucephalandra types.
3. Are the plants in this pack safe for shrimp and fish?
Yes, all species included in the Potted Buce Starter Pack are 100% safe for all freshwater fish, shrimp (including sensitive Caridina and Neocaridina), and snails. Their tough leaf structures also make them resistant to plant-eating fish like cichlids or goldfish.

"All pots arrived in great condition. Got 9 total plants."
"They looked good until they didn’t. I put them in 3 different established shrimp tanks and they all just melted and rotted away in every tank. Contacted BP and they just told me, to sum it up, “that sucks…here a 20% off coupon. ” I won’t be buying from this place anymore. Also to add. I had a couple types of Anubis’s, ferns and mosses and a stem plant that all made it alive with no issues."
