Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Florida Sunset'
Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Florida Sunset' will be released to the aquarium trade for the first time starting in January 2009. This plant is a selection from Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Mi Oya' with brightly colored leaves ranging in shades from pink to red to yellow. Medium to high light light will help to make the leaf colors brighter but this plant will flourish under all lighting conditions.
It is a mistake to believe that Cryptocorynes require soft water. In large parts of Sri Lanka the water is hard, so Sri Lanka Cryptocorynes are almost all suitable for hard water. If the plant is affected by the so called "cryptocoryne disease", or meltdown, do not remove it from the aquarium because a few weeks later it will adjust to the water and it will produce new shoots. See other Cryptocorynes for further information.

Florida sunset	October 10, 2009
Reviewer: Anonymous person from Longmont, CO United States

I bought one plant in June. It came to me a scrawny 2 stalk plant. Now there is so much new growth, it has about 17 stalks and such beautiful coloring. Get more in stock!!

Beautiful but snails ate it	July 28, 2009
Reviewer: Anonymous person

Beautiful colors. It was gorgeous when it arrived, but I had ramshorn snails among others, and they chewed it up very badly. I have since removed them all from the tank and placed this in another tank. It grows well, just truly more difficult to keep it from getting eaten, so beware.
