Cryptocoryne Wendtii Tank Size and Specifications
For its more proper care, ensure that you regularly add fertilization to it and also don’t forget to perform water changes at least once per week. The plant will perform well even in low light conditions and therefore you shouldn’t worry much having lots of lighting for it to prosper. As you choose the kind of lighting to use in your aquarium for your plant, using a T5 or T8 fluorescent bulb can help bring about full lighting effect to it. If you have a problem with getting fluorescent bulbs you can still use LED lighting bulbs and the plant will still thrive.

As you introduce the plant for the first time in an aquarium setting you will see leaves dying of but this shouldn’t alarm you as it is a normal occurrence. Beginners may think that the Cryptocoryne Wendtii has died off but after some time the plant will start growing new leaves that will spruce up beautifully to surprise you. The bottom line here is to be patient after planting in aquarium and things will definitely change to better.
