- Rare rhizome plant that's sustainably farm-raised
- Dark green, oblong leaves with wavy edges
- 100% clean with no algae, duckweed, or snails
This gorgeous aquarium plant has wavy-edged, oblong leaves that are about 2.5 inches (6 cm) long and 0.5–0.75 inch (1–2 cm) wide. The deep green leaves are speckled with small, white dots and have an iridescent blue sheen, which contrasts beautifully with the dark red rhizomes. As one of the faster growing buce species, the plant can reach 4–8 inches (10–20 cm) in height with good light and nutrition.
The easy care requirements for buce plants are very similar to anubias — just add low light and liquid aquarium fertilizer. The rhizome should not be covered or buried in the substrate, so attach the plant to hardscape using a small dab of super glue gel on the roots.

This is a really beautiful plant. Unfortunately, not having experience with buce and the plant being small, I was nervous about separating it into individual plants without damaging it. I worked it out by just stretching it out into a long-ish mat and tied it to a twig-like piece of driftwood with thread. I think its actually a better look than if I had spread multiple plants out. Can't wait to see how this grows in. Like it better than anubias.
Buce plant arrived fast and in great condition. I only buy my aquarium plants from the ACO and would recommend them to everyone!!!
