I wanna see your crypts

[blizowman1]

I Have come to really love these plants I have a Wendtii 'red'

Crypt parva- which may be my favorite idk why but it's just a super nice little plant

And I just recently bought a Florida sunset crypt or what is supposed to be a sunset crypt it had two plants in the pot and one little baby plant so I got three

Now show me your I wanna see all the different kinds I'm currently gathering all my equipment so I can start my soon to be 90g dirt tank

So my sunset crypt and parva both are going threw a melt right now it makes me sad but it's funny cause my sunset is melting while there is other leaves sprouting

Not sure exactly as the tag didn't say.

 

[blizowman1]

Razorback.... What? Lol

 

[Razorback01]

Not sure exactly which crypt this is as the plant tag only said "cryptocorne"

 

[blizowman1]

Almost looks like a regular green Wendtii

 

[blizowman1]

Anyone else have any amazing looking crypts? Heck why not just show me any plant that you are the proudest of in your tank.

What are these mutated crypts and where do you find them

 

[mommytron]

These are mine. The first is C. Retrospiralis, the next are both C. Wendtii. All the C. Wendtii came from one plant i bought. (please excuse the mess, it's time for a PWC )

I got mine from a club member. He occasionally sells via The Planted Tank ( members only see sales, free to join ). Run a search or ask if anyone is selling it.

They are extinct in the wild AFAIK. Their habitat is a plantation now. My plant club helps keep several rare species alive and available in the hobby.

Your C wendtii almost looks like my C lucens ?



Baby (red ? ) wendtii

Your C wendtii almost looks like my C lucens ?

it was sold to me as wendtii but it's very possible! it's weird, when the leaves are littler they are bright green, and as they get bigger they get veiny and reddish. but it takes a while. i dunno it's a weird little plant but i like it
