Cryptocoryne wendtii .. Mi Oya is named after the river where is was first found in 1972. It is the largest of the Cryptocoryne wendtii varieties and has beautiful red-brown leaves. In contrast to most other red aquarium plants this species maintains the red colour regardless of the light regime. In Nature the plant is found in calcareous water and occasionally also in brackish water which leads us to conclude that the widespread concept that Crypts prefer soft water is probably wrong or at least misleading. Cryptocoryne wendtii Mi Oya grows well after a short period of acclimatisation and sets offshoots which eventually will create a dense cover in the aquarium. It tolerates temperatures up to 37ºC for a shorter periode - the latter is observed during temperature treatment of Discus.
