Rotala macrandra 'Japan' is a magnificent aquarium plant, but unfortunately very demanding. This variety is slightly easier to grow and develops better coloring. It needs very good light to develop its beautiful red hues, just as supplementation of CO2 and soft water is essential to ensure optimal growth. Cut the longest stems 5-10 cm from the ground and replant them in the group.

Remove the plant from the cup, gently rinse away the nutrient gel and divide it into several small portions. Plant them with some space between each portion so they can establish.
In vitro plants are grown under sterile conditions and normally arrive free from snails, algae and pesticides, making them suitable for sensitive shrimp aquariums.
Requirements depend on the species. CO₂ and balanced plant nutrition often produce denser, healthier growth, but follow the light and care requirements in the product description.
Provide stable lighting and nutrition, avoid major changes and remove deteriorating leaves. Newly planted specimens often need time to adapt to submerged growth.
