    Am a newbie to crypts.
    Bought this from Teo's about 2 weeks ago.
    Was told it's Tropica Brown.
    Did a search on Tropica's site, no such plants exists.
    Does not look like C.Wendtii 'Tropica" either.


    Another question: Can this crypt be grown in the foreground, like what I've done? Or will it grow tall after a while?

    Thanks a million!

    These are in emersed form. It looks like C.wendtii 'Tropica' or maybe C.wendtii 'Brown'. They should be ok with this arrangement after they convert to the submerged form.
    Read me! :bigsmile: http://justikanz.blogspot.com/

    I'm crypt collecting... Starting cheap, now have Cryptocoryne beckettii, C.beckettii var petchii, C.crispatula var.balansae, C.griffithii(Melted! ), C.nurii, C.parva, C.pygmaea(Melted! ), C.tonkinensis(Melted! ), C.walkeri, C.wendtii 'Brown', C.wendtii 'Green', C.wendtii 'Green Gecko', C.wendtii 'Tropica' and Cryptocoryne x willisii

    Oh, juggling is hard work, man!...

    These are emersed form of 'tropica', got to wait for the submerse leaves to grow out. They grow tall....
    Something about the water & the fishes that calms me down.

    Correct me if I am wrong, although they may grow tall, but they normally do not create a thick foilage to the point you can't see the background.
