ROTALA WALLICHII – Delicate Red Stem Plant for Foreground and Nano Aquascapes
Rotala wallichii is a fine-leaved stem plant from Southeast Asia, admired for its feathery texture and beautiful reddish coloration under high light. Growing to 10–30 cm in height and around 5 cm in width, it's perfect for the foreground or as a striking feature in nano and medium-sized aquariums.
To achieve the best decorative effect, plant it in tight groups. Its soft, airy appearance pairs well with broader-leaved species. Rotala wallichii thrives in slightly acidic water and responds positively to CO₂ supplementation, which greatly enhances its growth and color vibrancy.
