Rotala sp Vietnam is commonly called Vietnamese Rotala or Rotala Vietnam.
This Rotala species can be found in Vietnam’s shallow waters and wetland areas.
Rotala sp. ‘Vietnam’ was first introduced to the hobby by the Japanese firm Rayon Vert. Although this Rotala has yet to be recognized, it is known to inhabit shallow waterways and moist ground in its natural habitat. The submerged form is supposed to resemble Rotala hippuris, although it has yet to be determined whether it truly belongs to that species.
It will grow into a plant with green, needle-like leaves and a red stem when exposed to moderate light, while high light will turn the leaves a wonderful golden color. COâ‚‚ infusion, iron, and a micronutrient-rich substrate are required to help the plant develop to its full potential, and if it is not clipped, it will swiftly produce long shoots along the water’s surface. To reproduce the Rotala, remove the top and lateral stems and replant them.
The Vietnamese Rotala’s size and form make it a good midground or background plant, depending on how often you trim it, and its color contrasts nicely with green and red/pink plants, especially if placed in a tank with a lot of stem plants.
Care Tips
- Can endure a wide variety of temperatures, although it thrives best in tropical aquariums with temperatures between 20 and 28 degrees Celsius (68 and 82 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Its lush reddish look will be enhanced if nitrates are kept below 5ppm and phosphates are kept above 1ppm.
Tissue culture plants are young aquatic plants that are developed in-vitro in aquatic plant propagation laboratories. This unique cultivation ensures these plants are devoid of undesired snails, algae, and pesticides, making them completely safe for even the most delicate fish and shrimp species. We offer a diverse range of tissue cultured aquarium plant varieties. Our cultures provide substantial planting portions, and when combined with high-quality fertilizers and COâ‚‚ injection will grow into healthy aquatic plants.
