    Will Bucephalandra grow epiphytically?

    A question for any Buce experts out there - I'm wondering if Bucephalandra will grow as an epiphyte? If so what parameters are required? I'd like to add some to my Oophaga vivariums, where it would be misted once per day, be planted at low levels on cork which is pretty much constantly moist...
