Bucephalandra ‘Kedagang’: Enhance Your Aquascape with Iridescent Charm

Discover the captivating beauty of Bucephalandra ‘Kedagang’, a highly sought-after aquatic plant. Its unique foliage adds subtle color and texture, perfect for any planted aquarium.

Overview

Bucephalandra ‘Kedagang’ is a stunning rhizome plant originating from Borneo, known for its long, narrow, dark green leaves often adorned with tiny silvery or white dots. Under optimal conditions, and especially when submersed, its leaves can exhibit a beautiful blue metallic sheen, while its rhizomes and new leaf stalks may display a reddish hue. This slow-growing epiphyte develops a creeping habit, forming attractive clumps over time when attached to hardscape.

Care Level

Considered easy to care for, Bucephalandra ‘Kedagang’ is suitable for both beginners and experienced aquarists. It thrives in stable water conditions and is known for its adaptable nature. Avoid burying the rhizome in the substrate, as this can lead to rot; instead, attach it to rocks or driftwood.

Tank Essentials

This resilient plant can thrive in a range of setups. While there isn’t a strict minimum tank size, it performs well in nano and larger aquariums. Maintain a pH range of 6.0-8.0 and a temperature between 21-28°C (70-82°F). Good water flow helps prevent algae growth on its slow-growing leaves.

Diet

Bucephalandra ‘Kedagang’ primarily absorbs nutrients from the water column. While not strictly necessary, supplementing with an all-in-one liquid fertilizer and optional CO2 injection can significantly enhance its growth rate and coloration, ensuring your plant remains vibrant and healthy.
