Cryptocoryne walkeri

Family: Araceae, Genus: Cryptocoryne

Description:

Cryptocoryne walkeri is a popular aquarium plant from Sri Lanka, known for its ease of care and suitability for beginners. It forms dense clumps with medium-sized, bright green or bronzy leaves that have a wavy shape. This plant thrives in nutrient-rich substrates and can grow both submerged and emersed, producing flowers above water. It is sensitive to changes in water parameters and may experience 'crypt melt' when introduced to new environments. Despite this, it is a resilient plant that propagates through runners and is ideal for midground placement in aquariums.
