Cryptocoryne Spiralis Red TC Pot - Reddish Foreground Aquarium Plant

Bring rich color and texture to your aquascape with Cryptocoryne Spiralis Red, a striking crypt prized for its long, slender, wavy leaves that take on deep reddish tones under good lighting. Supplied in a tissue culture (TC) pot, it arrives pesticide-free, snail-free, and ready to divide into individual plants for your foreground or midground.

Why Aquascapers Love It

• Rich red coloration: Slender, spiraling leaves that deepen to red-brown tones under moderate to high light, adding warm contrast to green layouts
• Low-light tolerant: Thrives under low to moderate lighting, making it approachable for beginner and low-tech tanks
• Pest and algae free: Lab-grown in a sterile TC pot, arriving free of snails, algae, and pests, safe to add directly into an established tank
• Slow, stable growth: Holds its shape once established, meaning less trimming and a long-term stable centerpiece
• Easy to divide: A single TC pot can be split into multiple plants, giving good coverage and value per pot

Care at a Glance

• Rinse the tissue culture gel off gently before dividing into individual plants for planting
• Plant the crown just at substrate level, spacing plants to allow leaves to spread naturally
• Note that crypts can experience "crypt melt" after replanting; this is normal and new growth will follow
• Comfortable in a wide temperature and pH range, suiting most freshwater community tanks

Whether you're building a red-toned foreground or a naturalistic aquascape with warm color accents, Cryptocoryne Spiralis Red delivers reliable, long-lasting color. Each TC pot is inspected before packing to arrive healthy and ready to plant.
