Tropica Rotala rotundifolia Green (Medium Tech)
The Asiatic Tropica – Rotala rotundifolia ‘Green’ is very similar to Rotala rotundifolia, but its leaves remain fresh and bright green, even with intensive light. Stems becomes 40-50 cm long and 2-3 cm wide. The plant forms many side shoots willingly and obtains a beautiful, bushy and “hanging” growth. Prune it frequently to maintain healthy growth. An ideal starter plant that looks best when planted in large groups.

In a few days, after placing your plants in the aquarium you will notice some of the leaves start to melt and fall away.
This means the transition process has started. Please note the plants might look DEAD, but they are fully alive, so do not panic. Also, after a few days you will notice new growth will appear and the plant will fully change its form into submersed growth. You need to continuously trim and put a fertilizer in for the plants to thrive in your aquarium. Two good fertilizers include Easy Life – Profito and Scape Complete or our premium APT Zero. All plants have specific needs but if you follow the general instructions on our labels the plant will transition well and will eventually succeed and prosper in your aquarium.

McMerwe’s Comment: A premium Tropica Plant. We use rotala green to accent the natural non green background plants. It remains a good looking plant by itself as well. [Rating 5/5]

Looked nice but melted in one week. Hopefully a tiny piece might survive. Will wait and see.
