This is a single lose plant grown submerged.

Species: Cryptocoryne wendtii 'brown'
Common Name: Brown Wendt's Crypt, Brown Cryptocoryne
Family: Araceae
Native Range: Sri Lanka
Care Level: Easy
Tank Size: 10 gallons or larger
Water Parameters:
Temperature: 68-82°F (20-28°C)
pH: 6.0-7.5
Hardness: Soft to moderately hard
Lighting Requirements: Low to moderate light (1-2 watts per gallon)
Tank Placement: Foreground to midground
Substrate: Rich, nutrient-dense substrate such as aquatic soil or sand
Propagation: Rhizome division, runners
Feeding: Cryptocoryne wendtii 'brown' can obtain nutrients from the substrate and water column, but additional supplementation with liquid or root fertilizers can promote growth and coloration.
Tankmates: Cryptocoryne wendtii 'brown' is generally peaceful and can coexist with most fish, invertebrates, and other aquatic plants. Avoid aggressive fish species or those known to uproot plants.
Maintenance:
Plant the rhizome in the substrate with the roots buried and the leaves above the substrate.
Provide moderate lighting to promote healthy growth and vibrant coloration.
Avoid drastic fluctuations in water parameters, especially temperature and pH.
Regularly trim yellow or dying leaves to maintain the plant's appearance and prevent decay.
Cryptocoryne wendtii 'brown' can propagate by producing runners that develop new plantlets. These can be left to grow into new plants or carefully separated and replanted.
Special Considerations:
Cryptocoryne wendtii 'brown' is a hardy and adaptable plant, but it may take some time to acclimate to new tank conditions. Be patient and avoid making frequent changes to the tank environment.
This plant can tolerate lower light conditions but may exhibit slower growth and less intense coloration compared to higher light conditions.
Cryptocoryne wendtii 'brown' may melt, or shed old leaves, when introduced to a new tank. This is normal and new growth should emerge shortly after.
With proper care, Cryptocoryne wendtii 'brown' can thrive and add a beautiful touch to your aquatic setup. Regular monitoring of water parameters, lighting, and maintenance will help ensure its health and longevity in your aquarium.
 
Do you want a plants that required little or no pruning and lower light tolerance, so you could easily manage nutrient dosing, even while you are away.
You have the ABBCF of aquarium plant to choose from:
Anubias
Bolbitis
Buce
Cryptocoryne’s and
Fern types
 
Crypt’s are low light tolerant, slow growing and with many varieties available, would provide ideal foreground, midground and background interest with pleasing blends of colours, forms and textures.
Crypt’s are really easy to keep.
 
This Crypt is 1 of the hardy species and GREAT for BEGINNERS
 
This Crypt is one of the species that breeders are able to produce stunning variations from and this variety is not a disappointment.
This Crypt can tolerate a lot of variation in water quality, lighting, flow and nutrients. But CONSISTENCY is very important, so don’t make big changes very fast. DRASTIC Changes could lead to melting of the leaves and sometimes of the whole plant. So take your time when you plan changes and do it slow, all your aquarium inhabitants will appreciate it.
 
Some notes:
Cryptocoryne prefer not to be moved once planted. If possible, do not move them!
Do not make drastic changes to the aquarium. Unstable parameters will result in melt and rotting of the aquarium plant.
Please be sure to remove this plant from its pot AND remove the cotton surrounding the roots, then plant your plant into the substrate.
LEAF melting initially, is normal when you plant them, new adjusted leaves will soon form. Be patient. As long as your roots are healthy you are OK.
Hardy species can be planted in inert soil like cilice sand but then experts say, you need to add some root tablets for the best growth.
In an experiment (starting 2011) I took Cryptocoryne wendtii and planted it in a low light, low flow, low bio mass aquarium without root tabs or extra plant food. I left them there and only fed the fish. Today 2021 these crypt’s are still in that aquarium and still ok, but they never thrived. This was just to see what the minimum survival possibility was and I found out that these Crypt’s are very hardy. NOW I am not saying all Crypt’s would have survived but I can honestly say most Crypt’s need you to make massive mistakes to kill them.
