Bucephalandra Brownie Phoenix Brown

Bucephalandra Brownie Phoenix Brown is a beautiful species of Bucephalandra that is practically the same as Bucephalandra Brownie Phoenix, without the emerald green tones. Buce Brownie Phoenix Brown offers a metallic pop of color while providing a similar leaf size, shape and texture. Its iridescent hue makes for a great choice in low-tech planted tanks or even in blackwater setups. Bucephalandra Brownie Phoenix Brown looks best when placed in the mid-ground of planted aquarium tanks along with other Bucephalandra species that are similar in size.

This aquatic plant prefers low to medium lighting and will grow nice and dense if favorable conditions are provided. CO2 injection along with a good maintenance schedule will promote quicker, more robust growth. The stem and rhizome should not be covered when planting as this will cause the plant to rot and wither. It is best to attach or wedge Bucephalandra on or between aquarium hardscapes such as aquarium driftwood and aquascaping rocks.
