Cryptocoryne Wendtii Sp. ‘Green Gecko’

I was cleaning my tank today and shot a nice picture of my Cryptocoryne Wendtii ‘Green Gecko’ which is submersed unlike many of the other Cryptocoryne’s I keep. I’ve actually had this plant send up spathe’s three times now in submersed conditions but I’ve never been able to get a good picture of it besides the previous posts in which I’ve shown the submersed spathe.

This plant has been in the same place for roughly 1 year now and is growing absolutely beautifully; below are also the conditions it’s in.

Lighting – X 2 Spiral CFL 6700K bulbs on for 10 hours a day
PH – 7.5 water changes done with R.O.D.I water
Temperature – 21-23 celsius – 69.8-73.4 fahrenheit
Fauna – X 3 Super Red Longfin Bristlenose Pleco’s
Substrate- Seachem Dark with Mineralized Top Soil underneath and black sand as a cap.
