Cryptocoryne 'Pink Flamingo' is one of the most sought-after and visually striking Cryptocoryne varieties in the aquascaping world. Known for its delicate pink to rose-colored leaves with subtle variegation, this rare plant creates an elegant focal point in planted aquariums.
This plant is cultivated in sterile laboratory conditions and comes in a compact small Vitro Culture® cup (1.7" × 1.7"), making it ideal for nano aquariums or aquascapers who want to grow this rare species from a young plant. Each cup yields approximately 1 small plantlet, which will gradually develop into a beautiful rosette as it adapts to aquarium conditions.
Despite its delicate appearance, Cryptocoryne Pink Flamingo can adapt well once established. Under proper lighting and stable parameters, the plant will slowly develop its signature pink coloration and compact growth form.

Cryptocoryne species may experience “crypt melt” when first introduced to a new aquarium environment. This is a normal adaptation process. With stable water conditions, the plant typically regrows healthy new leaves from its root system.
Certain aquatic plants may be restricted or regulated in some U.S. states. Always check your local and state regulations before purchasing or introducing plants into natural waterways. Never release aquarium plants into the wild.
