Tissue cultures are specially grown plants for those who do not want to introduce any pests of any kind to their aquarium. These are grown in specialty labs with zero possibility of algae, snails or any other undesirables, Guaranteed.
An easy plant just right for beginners, Buce Kedakang (sometimes called Kedagang) is slow-growing but hardy!
Place at the forefront of your aquarium, or on driftwood or stones as accents.
As it is an epiphyte, do not bury the plant's roots and rhyzome in your substrate, as it will rot. Instead, attach with superglue or string. I like clear sewing thread!
Be sure to remove the plant from its gel before planting. Simply loosen it with your fingers and wash away under running water. Plant gently as usual.
