Frequently Asked Questions

How fast will Cryptocoryne albida 'Brown' grow?

Growth is slow, particularly in tanks with lower light levels. Better light will support quicker development.

Where should I plant it in my aquarium?

It is suited to the foreground of a planted tank, where its narrow, low-growing leaves can be seen close to the glass.

Does it need strong lighting?

No, it tolerates poor light conditions, though it will grow more slowly than it would under better light.

What do I receive when I order?

You receive a pack of five pots of Cryptocoryne albida 'Brown', supplied ready to plant into your substrate.

Suited to foreground planting in tanks where light is limited, this potted plant gives you narrow red-brown leaves marked with black patterning and softly waved edges. It offers a light, graceful shape that pairs well with bolder-leaved plants for contrast, though it grows slowly when light is low. You receive a pack of five pots of Cryptocoryne albida 'Brown', ready to plant into your substrate.

Cryptocoryne albida 'Brown' is a foreground aquarium plant native to Asia, including Thailand, grown for its narrow red-brown leaves carrying black patterning and gently waved edges, a leaf style that stands out against the plainer greens typical of easy-care Cryptocorynes.

It suits planted tanks with limited lighting, since the plant tolerates poor light well. That gives aquarists with dimmer setups a foreground option without needing to upgrade their lighting first.

Each leaf grows to around 1-3cm wide and up to 15cm long, giving the plant a light, airy form that works well planted among bolder species for contrast. You get a pack of five pots of Cryptocoryne albida 'Brown', ready to be planted into your substrate.

Its narrow, waved leaf profile and tolerance of lower light set it apart from faster-growing or broader-leaved foreground plants, making it suited to aquascapers after a more delicate, textured look.
