CRYPTOCORYNE AFFINIS

• This Cryptocoryne has been kept in aquaria for over 50 years.
• All Dennerle Cryptocorynes are grown emersed in our greenhouses.
• Growth behaviour and leaf form differs significantly in plants growing in emersed and submerged states.
• This is also true of Cryptocoryne affinis.
• The typical olive-green to brown foliage only develops under water.
• These plants make no great demands in terms of lighting, but optimum growth is achieved in slightly alkaline water. C. affinis comes highly recommended for cichlid aquaria with limestone.
