    C. nurii not available locally, had it once before... Benny bought some from philippines (I think). Too challenging for me, but if one day I can afford a chiller, maybe can try

    I got mine from Teo's farm once. The price was very reasonable. However, Teo's seldom has it. They are very sensitive to changes in environment and will rot easily when that happens. IMO, I think the plant can survive well at temp around 28C. You may want to call them up to check.

    Cheers!

    It is not right to disclose the price but definitely affordable. It is less than what you need to pay for downoi, special moss or gu jing chow. They do have some C Griffithi which they call them longkang crypts from Malaysia. Rots easily but at least some challenge for crypt lovers.

    Cheers!

    whether or not is it right to disclose the price is subjective. But i have to agree that the crypt is definitely affordable. I manage to get them just now at Colourful Tropical Aquarium.

    The plant looks absolutely stunning, but the specimen i got was slightly rotting.

    I should have read up before buying but its too late anyway...

    Saw C Nurri at Teo's 2 weeks ago. Interested people may want to call before proceeding down. Price is affordable for those who are willing to buy weeping moss.

    Cheers!

    It does not do well over the long term submersed, it does grow well emergent.

    I've kept the plant for about 10 years.

    Sorry...I did not noticed any flowers around at the river I took them from , we are always short of time ..usually the nurii would be our last location before heading home...

    but i managed to propigate them successfully in my tanks and in my outdoor pond....they tend to do better floating in my outdoor pond...they flowered a few time outdoor but don't know why I never thought of shhoting them..oh well...

    here are pics from my chilled tank.
