About

One of the darkest and most dramatic Bucephalandra varieties, with leaves appearing nearly black under standard aquarium lighting while revealing stunning dark green and purple iridescence under bright LEDs. The contrast between dark foliage and tiny white leaf-surface spots is remarkable. A top-tier collector's variety commanding premium prices.

Care Guide

Attach rhizome to hardscape in low to medium light. No CO2 required but CO2 improves growth rate. Liquid micro fertiliser once weekly. Very slow grower — minimal trimming needed. Propagate by rhizome division when large enough. Compatible with all fish and invertebrates. Stunning display piece in any aquascape.
