Rotala Wallichii Tissue Culture

Common Name: Rotala Wallichii

Rotala Wallichii is a popular stem plant with thin fragile leaves that can create luscious forests of green and red when grown in large clusters.  High lighting, Co2, and fertilization dosing will turn the leaves a mix of vibrant pink, red, orange and yellow hues. This plant is best kept in large clusters to create a nice bushy background effect.

Notes:

• Rotala has fragile leaves! Be sure to handle with care. 
• Final coloration is ultimately dependent upon the conditions this plant is kept in. This is a live plant meaning size, shape and color may vary.
• Tissue culture plants are grown in vitro from a state of the art laboratory specialized in propagating aquatic plants. They provide the best option for those who want to ensure that absolutely zero unwanted pests are introduced into the aquarium.
• Remove tissue culture gel before planting.  Simply wash the gel away or soak the plant in water and squeeze the gel off with your fingers.
• Do not make drastic changes to the aquarium. Unstable parameters will result in melt and rotting of the aquarium plant.
