Care Tips: Rotala blood red is a striking and colorful plant that adds vibrant red hues to aquascapes. It thrives in medium to high lighting and benefits from CO₂ supplementation, which helps to intensify its red coloration. Regular fertilization with micronutrients and macronutrients is essential to support its growth and vibrant color. This plant grows at a medium to fast rate, and trimming is necessary to keep it compact and prevent it from becoming too tall or leggy. It works well in the midground or background, where it can serve as a colorful focal point in an aquascape. A nutrient-rich substrate and stable water parameters will promote healthy growth.
