Cryptocoryne spiralis ‘Red’: Vibrant Hues for Your Aquascape

Add a striking splash of rich, earthy red to your freshwater aquarium with the stunning Cryptocoryne spiralis ‘Red’. This robust and elegant aquatic plant is a favorite among aquarists for its captivating coloration and unique, elongated leaves.

Overview

The Cryptocoryne spiralis ‘Red’ stands out with its long, slender leaves, which can display shades from warm bronze to a deep, intense red, often accented by a subtle green midrib under optimal conditions. Growing upright and grass-like, this Cryptocoryne forms attractive rosettes that bring a dynamic vertical element to your planted tank. Its eye-catching appearance makes it an excellent focal point, adding depth and contrast against greener foliage.

Care Level

Considered easy to moderate in care, Cryptocoryne spiralis ‘Red’ is a hardy and adaptable aquatic plant suitable for a range of experience levels. It thrives best when allowed to establish a strong root system, and like other Crypts, prefers not to be moved frequently to avoid “Crypt melt.” This peaceful plant is compatible with most community tank inhabitants.

Tank Essentials

For optimal growth and to allow its full potential height, a minimum aquarium size of 60 litres is recommended. Provide a nutrient-rich substrate, such as aquarium soil or fine-grained gravel, for strong root development. This Crypt thrives in temperatures between 22-28°C and a pH range of 6.0-7.5.

Diet

As a heavy root feeder, Cryptocoryne spiralis ‘Red’ greatly benefits from nutrient-rich substrates and the addition of root tabs. Supplementing with a comprehensive liquid fertilizer, especially one rich in iron, will promote vibrant coloration and healthy growth for your healthy aquarium plants.
