The Plant
Rotala 'Bonsai' is a surprisingly undemanding stem plant with small leaves. It starts out fully green and slowly turns pink at the tips, and it can form a lush, low midground. It has thin, delicate stems and is easy to propagate.
Plant Care
Type: Stem plant · Height: Up to 6 in · Light: Moderate · CO2: Not required · Temp: 74–82°F · pH: 6.4–7.6
Planting Tips
Use it in the midground of a tank of 10 gallons or more. Keep it away from fast-swimming fish that could break the thin stems.
Why Shrimp Keepers Like It
A dense patch makes good shelter for shrimp and small fish, with plenty of small leaves to graze.
