IMPORTANT: Tissue culture aquarium plants are grown in laboratory settings that specialize in aquatic plant propagation. Tissue culture plants contain young specimen that are grown in emersed forms. With this in mind, please understand how to properly transition and acclimate plant(s) into desired form(s). When done correctly, plant melt is minimal. We cannot issue refunds for tissue culture plants that arrive healthy and die out of our care.

LIVE PLANTS ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO STRESS AND DAMAGE FROM TRANSIT - This may appear in the form of minimal melt, leaf loss, cosmetic damage, etc. Refunds or replacements will not be issued for plants with viable root systems.


Remove tissue culture gel and clean gently before planting in the aquarium.

Cryptocoryne Lucens is a less common type of Crypt that can serve as a foreground or midground plant. Its slender leaves are bright green with brown stems. When grown in large groups, it resembles tall thick reeds of grass. Similar to other Crypts, this plant is recommended for beginners as they are easy to care for and have minimal requirements.

When grown in quality substrate such as Marfied Controsoil, this plant has the capability to feed through its roots and grow quickly without the need for high light, CO2 or fertilizer dosing. It can be grown both submerged and emersed. To propagate, simply cut off new plantlets growing from the mother rhizome.
