Bucephalandra Brownie Red Coin, commonly known as Bucephalandra Red Mini Coin, is a captivating and rare aquatic plant that brings elegance and vibrancy to any freshwater aquarium. Known for its compact size and striking red coloration, this plant is perfect for aquascaping enthusiasts looking to enhance their underwater landscapes with unique and eye-catching foliage.

Key Features:

  • Striking Coloration: Features stunning red to reddish-brown leaves that stand out beautifully against green plants and other aquarium decor.
  • Compact Growth: Grows in a small, compact form, making it ideal for nano aquariums, as well as foreground and midground placement in larger tanks.
  • Unique Appearance: The rounded, coin-like leaves add a distinct and attractive texture to your aquascape.
  • Slow Development: Takes a long time to develop into a thick, compact carpet over rocks and wood, mimicking its natural habitat.

Optimal Conditions:

  • Lighting: Prefers low to moderate lighting, which helps maintain its vibrant coloration and healthy growth.
  • Substrate: Can be attached to hardscape elements like rocks and driftwood or planted in a nutrient-rich substrate.
  • Water Parameters: Thrives in a range of water conditions, with an ideal temperature range of 72°F to 82°F (22°C to 28°C) and a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5.

Care and Maintenance:

  • Lighting: Low to moderate light conditions are ideal. High lighting may cause algae growth on leaves.
  • Attachment: Attach Bucephalandra Red Mini Coin to rocks, driftwood, or other hardscape elements using aquarium-safe glue or thread.
  • Water Flow: Prefers gentle to moderate water flow, which mimics its natural habitat and helps prevent algae buildup on its leaves.
  • Nutrients: Benefits from regular fertilization and CO2 supplementation to support its growth and coloration.

Aquascaping Tips:

  • Placement: Perfect for foreground and midground areas, providing a pop of color and texture.
  • Maintenance: Minimal maintenance is required, but occasional trimming of old leaves can promote new growth and keep the plant looking its best.

Conservation Commitment: Due to the popularity of the Bucephalandra species, they have been heavily collected from the wild, putting them at risk of extinction. At Aquarium Plants Factory, we are committed to providing farm-raised and tissue culture Bucephalandra species to save forests and protect the natural rivers and rainforests of Indonesia.

Aquarium Benefits: Bucephalandra Brownie Red Coin not only enhances the visual appeal of your aquarium with its vibrant red leaves but also contributes to the overall health of the tank by providing hiding spots and grazing surfaces for small fish and shrimp.

        WHAT WE CAN'T GUARANTEE

        Even though our plants are very clean, but we can't guarantee they will be 100% pest-free because we cannot be responsible for your aquarium. Please use it at your own risk. We recommended all customers rinse the plants with clean water and quarantine them before use.

        However, plants in tissue culture will be 100% free from pests, algae and never have been contacting with any aquarium.

        1. Due to the nature of the product. We don't guarantee our plants will be pests free. ( snails, algae, hitchhikers )
        2. We don't guarantee our plants will be free of pesticides. We use homemade, organic pesticides in our greenhouse to control pests. We do not use pesticides that contain copper. Copper is toxic to invertebrates such as aquatic snails, crabs, shrimps, etc
        3. We don't guarantee your aquarium success or are responsible for your aquarium inhabitant including but not limited to fish, shrimp, snail, turtle, etc. So please quarantine all plants when use!
        4. Unless specific, we don't guarantee aquatic plants will be grow emerged or submerge.

        Please review your state's regulations on restricted plants, as we are committed to not shipping plants that are restricted in your area. Do not release any plants into the wild or waterways, as this can harm local ecosystems by introducing invasive species.
