Rotala wallichii

Rotala wallichii is a popular aquatic plant often used in planted aquariums. It’s known for its fine, needle-like leaves and striking colors, which can range from green to pinkish-red under high lighting. Here’s a quick care guide:

• Lighting: Requires moderate to high lighting to thrive and display vibrant colors.
• CO₂: Benefits from CO₂ supplementation, which enhances growth and color.
• Water Parameters: Prefers soft to moderately hard water, with a pH range of 5.5-7.5.
• Temperature: Ideal temperature range is 20-28°C (68-82°F).
• Growth: Tends to grow vertically and can reach the water surface, making it ideal as a background plant. Regular trimming encourages bushier growth.
