somewhat more demanding
This green water trumpet originates from the central highlands of Sri Lanka. Due to its low growth height of only 5 - 10 cm, it is the smallest species kept in aquaria. On the banks of fast-flowing rivers it grows in dense colonies. Cryptocoryne parva grows very slowly and is also somewhat more demanding to care for. Stronger lighting and CO2 supplements are required. The small water trumpet is highly recommended for Nano Cubes. Even in the smallest 10 L cube, this little plant has enough space.

Notes
The brown colour variant of Cryptocoryne wendtii is also very popular and can be used in many planted landscapes. Its leaf edges are slightly wavy; in some cases, the leaves are also bullous in shape. The leaf colour is green to brown, sometimes with brown streaking. With good lighting, its leaves become deep dark brown. In combination with other green cryptocorynes, this creates a very striking contrast. Like almost all Cryptocorynes from Sri Lanka, it grows well in harder water and is therefore ideally suited for cichlid aquaria.

Notes
The large Amazonas sword plant is perhaps the most popular plant in the aquarium hobby. Its leaves are 3–6 cm wider than those of the ‘amazonicus’ variety, and the height of up to 60 cm makes this species appear even more dominant. Mature clumps, some with more than 50 leaves, are a striking feature. However, the substrate must be at least 10 cm deep for the root system to develop properly. Combined with Helanthium species (dwarf Echinodorus), beautiful South American underwater landscapes can be created.

Vallisneria spiralis is also one of the classics in aquaristics. This undemanding aquatic plant forms ribbon-shaped leaves between 0.8 and 1.5 cm wide. Sometimes leaf lengths of up to 1 metre are achieved. It is easy to care for and cultivate and is ideal for creating a green, living back wall. Runner shoots that grow into the front area should be removed in good time. The species name "spiralis" does not refer to the leaves, but to the spirally twisted flower stems. It is also an ideal plant for perch aquaria.

Cryptocoryne lutea also comes from Sri Lanka. Its leaf colouring is usually dark green and sometimes with a fine line pattern. As with most other species of Cryptocoryne, propagation is by runners. Just a few centimetres next to the actual plant, a new small shoot appears from the substrate. If you want to limit the spread, it is sufficient to simply remove these new shoots with the help of sharp scissors or a knife.

Vesicularia sp. – In vitro plant, 6 cm potVesicularia sp. are mosses that form large, dense mats and grow over decorations, stones and roots. They reproduce by division of the plant. They are easy to care for and are recommended for humid terrariums and aquariums. Supplied as an in vitro plant.

Mosses are unique yet low-maintenance plants. Compared to traditional aquarium plants, they differ significantly in appearance. They have no true roots, and their stems and leaves are greatly reduced. They grow in the form of green mats that attach to various surfaces in the aquarium.
Vesicularia spreads by creeping over decorative elements and the substrate. With regular trimming and appropriate shaping, it quickly forms a dense, green carpet. The moss should be attached to a decorative element, for example with cotton thread, thin fishing line or special plant glue.This plant has virtually no special requirements regarding water parameters. It grows well under almost all conditions; water hardness, pH value and lighting can be largely arbitrary. CO₂ supplementation is not required either. Propagation is by dividing the plant into smaller pieces. Pruning and shaping are well tolerated and promote attractive, dense growth.In vitro cultures are free from:BacteriaFungiAlgaeannoying snails

Natural care for healthy water and vital aquarium inhabitants - with Easy-Life Humin Pro+.Difference to the product Catappa:Below you will find some information to help you better understand the differences between Catappa-X and Humin Pro+: Catappa-X is made from a special blend and extract of catappa leaves.
It has strong antioxidant properties that protect cells from stress and inflammation, promoting fish health. Catappa leaves also contain natural plant dyes that provide more intense and vibrant fish colors. Catappa-X therefore focuses primarily on color enhancement and health promotion. Humin Pro+ is a combination of fulvic and humic acids - organic molecules formed from the decomposition of plant and animal material found in soil, peat, streams and natural waters. Humic acids can replicate the tropical water conditions found in the natural habitat of many aquarium fish. Humin Pro+ is particularly recommended for tropical fish, while Catappa-X is suitable for all fish species. In addition, humic substances stimulate enzyme activity not only in fish, but also in plants and microorganisms in the aquarium. Aquatic plants can absorb nutrients more efficiently, while beneficial microorganisms continue to thrive - ensuring a healthy and stable ecosystem in the aquarium.

Hygrophila sp. Tiger
Hygrophila sp. Tiger is a decorative plant with narrow, red colored leaves. It grows rather tall, making it suitable for the second or third level of an aquarium.Difficulty of growing: easyLight requirement: mediumCO₂ requirement: moderateHeight of mature plant: up to 40 cmGrowth rate: FastTemperature: 20-30°CPlacement in aquarium: third and second levelsOrigin: Asia6 cm cup diameterHygrophila sp. 'Tiger' is a decorative aquatic plant that belongs to the Acanthaceae or acanthus family. The species gets its name from the interesting markings on the leaves, which can be reddish brown or brownish green depending on the light intensity in the aquarium. A pronounced marbled pattern can be seen on the upper surface of the leaves. The exact origin of the plant is not entirely clear, it is a variety that is relatively new to aquaristics and probably originated in Asia.
The habit of this plant is very similar to Hygrophila polysperma, both also show similar requirements and grow about the same size. Hygrophila sp. Tiger is an easy to care for plant, so it is recommended for beginners in aquaristics.It is a narrow-leaved, tall-growing stem plant that tolerates a very wide range of aquarium conditions.It has no special requirements for pH or water hardness. It tolerates a temperature of 20 to 30 °C.With good light conditions and an adequate supply of macro and micro elements, you can be sure that this plant will color impressively. It will look spectacular and provide a red background for the other species in the tank. If conditions are favorable for the plant, it will maintain a compact growth and take on the appearance of an underwater minibush. In order for Hygrophila to continue to spread, it can be pruned regularly.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance on the selected items.

Easy to care for and undemanding.
This water calyx has been cultivated in aquariums for over 50 years. All Dennerle Cryptocorynes are cultivated above water in our greenhouses. As a rule, the leaves and growth behavior above and below water are extremely different. This is also the case with Cryptocoryne affinis. Its typical olive-green to brownish leaves only appear under water. It does not require much lighting, and growth is optimal in slightly alkaline water. C. affinis is highly recommended for cichlid aquaria with limestone.
