Bucephalandra Mini Dark Needle, interchangeable with "Mini Needle Leaf," is a miniature aquarium plant. Being one of the smallest Bucephalandras, this mini aquatic rhizome works especially well for nano aquariums. It exhibits a creeping growth that will slowly spread over any hardscape or decor with a porous structure. Primarily green in color, it may develop a sheen under the right lighting. Its small, compact size makes it an excellent plant to pick for detailed work or tucked-away areas of an aquascape that you notice when viewing up close—aka the small details that make a big difference. Plant this bite-sized Buce in a spot that receives good water flow, low to moderate lighting, aquatic plant fertilizer, and CO2 injection for the best growing results. Buce are tolerant of conditions associated with low-tech tanks, but provide more, and the difference in health and condition can’t be missed! *Detail photos depict an Ultum Nature Systems 5N nano aquarium with small bucephalandra varieties planted in the midground.
