Bucephalandra "Metallic Black" is a stunning and rare variety of the Bucephalandra genus, celebrated for its deep, dark foliage and mesmerizing metallic sheen. It adds a dramatic and luxurious touch to any aquarium setup, making it a favorite among aquascaping enthusiasts and collectors.


Key Features

  1. Coloration:

    • The leaves are an intense dark green to nearly black, with a metallic sheen that can shift between blue, purple, or silver tones depending on the light.
    • The metallic finish gives the plant an almost otherworldly appearance.
  2. Leaf Shape and Texture:

    • Leaves are narrow, elongated, and slightly wavy.
    • The surface is smooth, glossy, and velvety, enhancing its reflective qualities.
  3. Size:

    • Compact and slow-growing, making it perfect for nano tanks or as a midground/foreground plant in larger aquariums.
  4. Growth Rate:

    • Grows very slowly, characteristic of Bucephalandra, making it low-maintenance.

Care Requirements

  1. Lighting:

    • Low to moderate light is sufficient. High-intensity lighting can intensify the metallic sheen but may increase the risk of algae.
  2. Water Parameters:

    • pH: 5.5–7.5
    • Temperature: 22–28°C (72–82°F)
    • Thrives in soft to moderately hard water.
  3. CO₂ and Nutrients:

    • CO₂ supplementation is beneficial but not essential. It can enhance the plant’s growth rate and coloration.
    • Regular fertilization with liquid fertilizers or root tabs is recommended for optimal health.
  4. Substrate and Placement:

    • Best attached to hardscape elements like driftwood or rocks. Avoid burying the rhizome to prevent rot.

Propagation

  • Rhizome Division: Propagation is achieved by cutting the rhizome into sections, ensuring that each piece has at least 2–3 healthy leaves.
  • Secure the new sections to hardscape to encourage regrowth.

Love it but small amount
I have super sensitive skin and I noticed this doesn’t give me the burning feeling. Also, I love the texture and it’s not sticky. I noticed my skin has been soft! Downfall, the amount is very little for the price!

Not moisturizing enough for me
Felt pretty nice on the skin, but was not hydrating enough for my rosacea dryness/flaking.
