Cryptocoryne Pontederiifolia is a lesser known species, but still often kept by planted aquarium tank enthusiasts. Like other Cryptocoryne species, Cryptocoryne Ponterderiifolia doesn't prefer to be moved around but is hardy once it is established within a planted tank. Cryptocoryne Pontederiifolia features long stems with arrow-shaped foliage. Coloration can vary depending upon the condition the aquatic plant is kept under, but will generally hover around varying shades of olive green with slight shimmers when kept under strong lighting. Cryptocoryne Pontederiifolia is a medium-sized cryptocoryne and does best when planted in groups in the midground or background of an aquarium tank.

Tissue culture plants are grown in-vitro by laboratories who specialize in propagating aquatic plants. There is a huge selection of plant species that have been propagated this way. This is truly the best option for those who want absolutely zero unwanted pests, algae and pesticides. This makes them perfect for shrimp keepers and any planted tank enthusiasts alike.

NOTE: It is important to remove the tissue culture agar gel before planting. Simply wash the gel away, divide, and plant.
