Description

Cryptocoryne walkeri is a resilient and attractive freshwater plant known for its compact growth and rich green to bronze-colored leaves. Native to Sri Lanka, this species thrives in a variety of aquarium conditions, making it a popular choice for both beginner and experienced aquarists.

Key Features:

  • Compact Rosette Growth: Forms dense clusters of wavy, lance-shaped leaves, typically growing 4-8 inches (10-20 cm) tall.
  • Color Variability: Leaves range from vibrant green to deep bronze, depending on lighting and nutrient levels.
  • Low Maintenance & Hardy: Adapts well to different water parameters and lighting conditions, making it ideal for low-tech tanks.
  • Light & Care: Prefers low to moderate lighting and grows well in nutrient-rich substrates. CO₂ supplementation is optional but can enhance growth and coloration.
  • Crypt Melt & Adaptation: Like other Cryptocorynes, it may experience “crypt melt” when introduced to a new environment but will recover with time.

Uses in Aquascaping:

  • Perfect for midground placement, adding texture and depth to planted tanks.
  • Ideal for nano and community aquariums, providing shelter for small fish and shrimp.
  • Great for low-tech setups, thriving without demanding care requirements.
