LIVE AQUARIUM PLANT

Rotala Indica is a popular aquatic stem plant that can grow tall and thick making it a suitable background plant in planted aquariums. The tips of the stems can turn reddish colored when grown with CO2 and fertilization. Round leaves grow horizontally on the tall stems and can create a dazzling effect when grown in thick bushes. Frequent trimming will be necessary to achieve this effect in a planted tank.

Rotala Rotundifolia Red often confused with The True Rotala Indica / Ammania sp. Bonsai in many places. We usually sold this plant as an emersed form which looks similar to picture 1,2. The leaves are round when it grows emersed and it will start to transform into pointy leaf similar to picture 3 when they are fully adapted to submerged life. Rotala Rotundifolia Red does best in a rich soil based nutrient substrate, medium to high lighting along with CO2 injected aquarium.
