Cryptocoryne is one of the most popular, and widely available aquatic plants in the aquarium hobby. It has several color variations, and can be found in green, red and brown colors. The size of the leaves can vary greatly, and even the texture of the leaves can differ from plant to plant.

Growing this plant is easy and beginners can comfortably plant it in their aquarium without much hassle. It is a great choice of plant because it can do well in both high and low light intensity. Even though the plant will respond to CO2 injection, it is advisable not necessary.

When you take this plant from its natural place and introduce in an aquarium setting, you will have to offer it stable conditions and be a little patient with it for it to adjust. Once the plant gets used to the new environment it will easily grow and thereafter no issues will interfere with its growth.

Propagation is simple for cryptocoryne, and involves removing a small portion of the root with some stem attached. This can then be planted in the substrate, and will slowly develop into a new plant. One common practice is to pull mature plants apart, creating numerous new plants which can then be spread across the aquarium or sold to others.
