This popular Bucephalandra variety is grown fully submersed, making it ready to add directly to established aquariums without requiring an emersed-to-submersed transition. Its slow growth rate and easy-care nature make it an excellent choice for planted aquariums, shrimp tanks, nano setups, and low-tech aquascapes. Like other Bucephalandra, Catherinae grows from a rhizome and is best attached to rocks, driftwood, or other hardscape rather than buried beneath the substrate. Its detailed foliage and compact form make it an excellent choice for adding texture and visual interest to natural aquascapes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eScientific Name:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Bucephalandra sp. ‘Catherinae’\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFamily:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Araceae\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrowth Form:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Rhizome plant\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrowth Rate:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Slow\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLighting Requirements:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Low to Medium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCO₂ Requirement:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Not required, but recommended for faster growth and fuller development\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTank Placement:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Foreground, Midground, or attached to Hardscape (Do not bury the rhizome)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTemperature Range:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 72–82°F (22–28°C)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003epH Range:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 6.0–7.5\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMax Height:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 2–4 inches (5–10 cm)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Easy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNative Region:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Borneo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhy You’ll Love It:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDistinctive foliage adds texture and detail to planted aquariums.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFully submersed grown and ready to add directly to your aquarium.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSlow-growing and very low maintenance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExcellent choice for shrimp tanks, nano aquariums, and low-tech setups.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCan be attached to rocks, driftwood, and other hardscape for a natural appearance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCompact growth makes it perfect for adding detail to smaller aquascapes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease Note:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e The product photo shows \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eone head\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.
