Scientific Name: Cryptocoryne lutea

Common Name: Crypt Lutea

Cryptocoryne lutea is a hardy crypt that develops upright, lance-shaped leaves in shades of green to bronze depending on lighting. Compared to other crypts, lutea benefits from moderate light and stands tall rather than sprawling, making it a versatile choice for foreground to midground placement in the botanical method, biotope, and blackwater aquariums. Because of its height, it is a good choice for placing between hardscape, as it will emerge between rocks or tangled roots just as plants would in nature.

Cryptocoryne lutea is a slow-growing plant that spreads steadily through runners beneath the substrate. Once planted, it prefers stability and should not be disturbed, as moving it often causes melt. Providing a nutrient-rich substrate or root tabs in sand-based aquarium substrates helps sustain healthy growth and coloration. Over time, small colonies form, creating a natural look that mimics shallow, shaded streams in their native South Asian habitats.

When first introduced, lutea may shed its emersed leaves, a normal stage known as “crypt melt.” Fresh submerged growth will emerge as the plant adjusts to its new conditions.

Feels good under feet.
Size: 2'2" x 3'3" (Oblong), Size: 2'2" x 3'3" (Oblong)
I have full bed (see picture). It’s sheepskin rug from single pelt. Bigger maybe would be maybe nicer but there would have to be genetically modified sheep for bigger pelt or sheepskin from 2 pelts. Price is fair in my opinion. Feels amazing to wake up and put feet on it. Appearance is nice just look at picture. I had fake rug in the past and feeling between this and the previous one is day and night. I like it and I love it. Just measure your area before purchasing this product and you should be ok.

Best quality for the best price I've found
Size: 2' x 3' (Oblong)
As a lover of sheepskin everything, I will say this is one of the best pelts I've bought. Very thick n fluffy, very soft, clean, and no smell...and the best price I've found as well. I'm buying more of these!
