Cryptocoryne Pink Flamingo - Potted

Cryptocoryne 'Pink Flamingo' is one of the most coveted and visually stunning aquarium plants available, prized for its vibrant pink foliage and compact growth. Unlike most aquatic plants, its leaves emerge in beautiful shades of soft pink to rosy salmon, creating a striking focal point in planted aquariums. This rare cultivar grows slowly and rewards patience with intense coloration when provided with stable conditions, nutrient-rich substrate, and moderate to high lighting. Its manageable size makes it ideal for foreground to midground placement, where its unique color can truly stand out. As a potted plant, it arrives with a well-established root system, allowing for easier planting and a smoother transition into your aquarium.
