Introduce a unique and textured element to your midground or background with Cryptocoryne crispatula var. tonkinensis. This striking Cryptocoryne variety is characterized by its long, strap-like leaves that often exhibit a beautiful wavy or ruffled margin. The coloration can range from olive green to reddish-brown, depending on the aquarium conditions, adding a touch of natural elegance and visual interest to your planted tank.
 
Key Features:
Unique Wavy/Ruffled Leaves: Offers a distinctive texture and visual appeal.
Variable Coloration: Displays attractive shades of olive green to reddish-brown.
Relatively Hardy: Tolerant of a wider range of water parameters once established.
Adaptable: Can grow well in low to medium light conditions.
Good for Midground/Background: Its height and unique leaf shape make it ideal for filling vertical space.
 
Planting and Care:
Plant Cryptocoryne crispatula var. tonkinensis directly into a nutrient-rich substrate. Like other Cryptocorynes, it may experience "Crypt melt" (sudden leaf die-off) when introduced to new tank conditions, but it usually recovers and sends out new growth. Avoid drastic changes in water parameters to minimize the risk of melt. Once established, it is relatively low-maintenance. It propagates via runners, slowly forming a colony over time.
