"The crinum calamistratum comes from West-Africa and can become up to 80 cm high. It has very beautiful thin leaves. However it grows a bit slower and produces less roots than the other crinum species. The crinum slamistratum is more rare than the other species. They do not need strong lighting but like to have a slight current in the water. So the best spot is near the pomp. Fish seldom eat this plant and it can be used very well in a brackish water aquarium. It is a very beautiful solitary plant for high aquariums! At least 50 cm high."
