🌿 Cryptocoryne undulata – Wavy-Leafed Beauty for Natural Midground Layouts
Cryptocoryne undulata is a classic midground aquarium plant known for its slender, gently rippled leaves that vary in tone from olive green to bronze. It’s a perfect option for aquarists who want natural texture and depth in low-tech tanks — all without using CO₂, liquid fertilizers, or root tabs.
This crypt thrives in deep, nutrient-rich soil and settles in quietly, helping maintain water quality and biological stability. It’s ideal for Father Fish–style aquariums where plants are grown the way nature intended — from the roots up.
