DESCRIPTION

Introduction:

Rotala rotundifolia 'Manipurensis' is a rare and visually striking variant of Rotala rotundifolia, originating from the Manipur region of India. This plant is known for its vibrant reddish-pink tones, which develop under strong lighting and CO₂ supplementation. Unlike other Rotala rotundifolia varieties, 'Manipurensis' has slightly broader leaves and a more compact growth habit, making it an excellent choice for aquascapers looking to add bold color and texture to their tanks. It thrives in well-maintained aquariums and is best suited for background or midground placement.

Care Requirements:

  • Water Parameters: Prefers a temperature range of 20–28°C, with an optimal pH of 5.5–7.5 and soft to moderately hard water (3–12 dGH).
  • Nutrient Requirements: Requires regular fertilization with iron and micronutrients to enhance its vibrant coloration. CO₂ injection significantly boosts growth rate and intensifies the reddish hues.
  • Tank Setup: Grows best in moderate to high lighting, which encourages compact growth and deeper coloration. Prefers a nutrient-rich substrate but can also be anchored in fine gravel or sand with root tabs. Plant in dense groups for a lush, bushy appearance.

Care Tips:

To achieve the most intense coloration, provide high-intensity lighting, consistent CO₂ injection, and a balanced fertilization routine. Regular trimming helps maintain a compact and bushy structure while preventing the lower leaves from shedding due to light deprivation. Ensure stable water conditions to support healthy growth.

Rotala rotundifolia 'Manipurensis' is a fantastic choice for aquascapers aiming to introduce vibrant red hues into their aquariums. Its dynamic color transitions and dense growth pattern create a stunning visual contrast, making it a standout feature in planted tanks.
