Slow and easy: low to medium light and no CO2. Attach to wood or rock and keep the rhizome above the substrate.

The Plant
Brownie Blue is a Borneo Buce that AquaticMotiv lists as a cool-toned pick for low-tech tanks. The leaves are long, green and ruffled, and the plant stays under about 2 inches. Care is easy.

Plant Care
Type: Rhizome plant · Origin: Borneo, Indonesia · Height: up to 2 in · Light: Low to moderate · CO2: Not required · Temp: 75-82°F · pH: 6.8-7.8

Planting Tips
Attach it to hardscape in the foreground or midground and leave the rhizome exposed. Cutting the rhizome gives you new plants to place elsewhere.

Why Shrimp Keepers Like It
A low-tech plant suits the stable, gentle setups shrimp do best in. Its slow, tough leaves build up biofilm for grazing, and the plant quietly takes up waste between water changes.
