Care Tips: Vallisneria Torta is a hardy, attractive plant known for its long, spiraling leaves that create a beautiful flowing effect in aquariums. It thrives in medium to high lighting and prefers slightly acidic to neutral water conditions (pH 6.0–8.0). This plant grows quickly and requires a good nutrient-rich substrate to support its long leaves. It works well in the background or midground of the aquarium and is particularly suitable for larger tanks due to its height. Vallisneria Torta benefits from regular pruning to control its growth and prevent it from overtaking the aquarium. It is a great plant for creating lush, natural-looking aquascapes and works well in both high-tech and low-tech setups. As a fast-growing plant, it helps to absorb excess nutrients, improving water quality. Due to its vertical growth habit, it is important to give this plant ample space to spread. When planting, ensure the rhizome is not buried, as this can prevent the plant from growing properly.
