Cryptocoryne Usteriana characteristics
Cryptocoryne usteriana is a Cryptocoryne very big It can grow to a height of up to 70 cm. It grows mainly submerged in rivers on the Philippine island of Guimaras. For a long time, the C. aponogetifolia larger was not distinguished from C. usteriana. This is the reason why plants that are grown under the name of C.usteriana they are in many cases truly C. aponogetifolia.
Like C. aponogetifolia, true C. usteriana grows best in hard water. This preference, as well as its size, make it a highly recommended plant for Aquariums of Chichlid from Lake Tanganyika and Lake Malawi.
