Care Tips: Hygrophila angustifolia 'Rubra' is a striking plant known for its reddish-green foliage and elegant, narrow leaves. It thrives in medium to high lighting conditions, and providing CO₂ supplementation will enhance its color and growth rate. This plant grows rapidly, so regular trimming is needed to prevent it from becoming too leggy and to encourage a bushy, compact form. It prefers a nutrient-rich substrate and benefits from regular fertilization, particularly with micronutrients and iron, to help maintain its vibrant coloration. Hygrophila angustifolia 'Rubra' works well in the midground or background of aquariums and can add a beautiful pop of color to your aquascape. It’s an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced aquascapers, as it adapts well to various water conditions.
