Bronze Crypts are an attractive variety of the Wendtii species that have slender lanceolate foliage and a golden-bronze color. They are slow growers and need minimal maintenance once established, making them a wonderful addition to any beginner tank. They are great to add to any midground or background that needs some color variety.
Cryptocoryne Wendtii are heavy root feeders and so they prefer a nutrient rich soil. However, you can still have success growing crypt in a fine to medium sized gravel when planted with sufficient root tabs. They can be grown submersed or emersed, and can be propagated by dividing the rhizome.
