Bucephalandra Pygmyis a beautiful small-leafed aquatic rhizome that offers iridescent blue, green and purple tones in a planted aquarium. It offers easy care and can grow well in low light tanks, making it a beginner-friendly choice. Like other buce, Pygmy Buce is suitable for both freshwater tanks and terrarium-like setups. It is an epiphyte, and will happily grow attached to your favorite driftwood, rocks, tank decor or within the cracks and gaps of your aquascape. When grown in groups, bucephalandra are beautiful gems and create lovely focal points that also provide safety for aquatic pets like shrimp and small tropical fish.

Its small size also makes it perfect for a wide range of aquarium tank sizes. Try it in your nano planted tank or your largest freshwater aquarium. Bucephalandra comes in many varieties, shapes, colors and looks best when kept in clumps in a planted aquarium tank.
