Aquafleur Rotala Blood Red

Aquafleur Rotala Blood Red

The ‘Blood Red’ variant of Rotala rotundifolia is renowned for being one of the most vividly red aquarium plants available, making it a standout choice for any aquascaping enthusiast. Its striking red colouration is particularly enhanced when paired with light green plants, creating a stunning contrast that elevates the overall aesthetic of your aquascape.

This easy-to-cultivate aquarium plant thrives in a variety of conditions, including relatively low light and nutrient levels. However, to achieve its most vibrant and deep red hues, it is essential to provide abundant light and supplemental CO2. When given the right conditions, ‘Blood Red’ will flourish, adding a dramatic splash of colour to your aquascape.

To maintain optimal light penetration and water flow among the stems, regular trimming is necessary. This not only promotes healthy growth but also helps to keep your aquascape looking tidy and well-maintained.
