Cryptocoryne Albida Red is a very rare and attractive variant of Cryptocoryne originating from Southeast Asia. This aquatic plant features narrow leaves with intense coloration and similar markings as Cryptocoryne Nurii. Cryptocoryne Albida Red is extremely hard to obtain, making it a seasonal item. Like most Cryptocoryne species, it is an extremely slow growing plant, but patience and care is rewarded. It's most captivating feature is its vibrant pink hue. It can be grown in both low tech or high tech tanks with low to medium lighting. CO2 is not required, but proves to aid in its growth.

Came in great!

"Initially, I was somewhat concerned because one of the containers had discoloration on the roots. However, after I removed the plant from the container, I found that the roots were nice, healthy and strong. I'm looking forward to watching this crypt grow."

Great customer service!

"My first one didn’t come in so great but the team at glass aqua made it right and fast! They shipped out a new cup and it was stunning! The carrier messed the last one up but this one is amazing and I’m letting it grow in a little longer before submerging it! So happy to have this one"

Poor quality

"I recevied 6 pots of crytocoryne albida red, 3 of them with the best quality, 3 more with a strange gray color."

Jose J. (3/5)

A beautiful plant, I love it.

"Cryptocoryne Albida Red has an unusual color that creates interesting contrast in my planted aquarium. A good amount of perfectly healthy starts in this little cup (in-vitro tissue culture). I’m very happy with this purchase."
