Cryptocoryne Moelmanni comes from the coastal areas of West Sumatra and is a relatively easy plant to grow and propagate.  It is very similar to Cryptocoryne Pontideriflora in habit but the leaves do tend to stay greener.  It is an excellent plant for the middle / background of the tank and will quickly form a healthy clump.
