Description:
“Florida Sunset” is a unique and eye-catching variant of Cryptocoryne wendtii, known for its striking mix of pink, peach, green, and sometimes bronze tones. The coloration can vary quite a bit depending on lighting and nutrients—under stronger light, you’ll see more vibrant sunset hues, while lower light keeps it more subtle.

Like most cryptocorynes, it can go through “crypt melt” when first introduced, but it typically bounces back quickly once established.

Care Tips:

• Best planted in nutrient-rich substrate
• Avoid frequent replanting once settled
• Stable water parameters are key
• Great for adding color contrast in planted tanks without needing high-tech setups
