Cryptocoryne undulata

The Undulated Crypt is yet another striking species in the rossette plant group. It has beautiful thin crinkled leaves which are chocolate brown or dark green on top and rosy copper on the bottom. In some lighting conditions it is possible to bring out strong red or lavender undertones.

   Although height is variable, it rarely exceeds 6 inches (15 cm) making it ideal for the middle or front of the aquarium. Like most other crypt species it does well from low light to moderate light, soft to hard water.

Distribution:   The Undulated Crypt originates from Sri Lanka.
