Loved for its mini size, it can be difficult to find an easy care red aquarium stem plant that retains its color and also fits in nano planted aquariums. When happy, its colors get bolder and the undersides of its leaves deepen, providing in vibrant contrast. Alternanthera plants are great for many popular aquascape styles including nature-style or Dutch aquariums that feature manicured groups of aquatic stem plants.
AR Mini is resilient and often gets categorized with true low tech plants. It can adapt, but lack of nutrients and light can be detected by leggy growth and dulled color. If you’re able, plant this one in a planted tank with CO2 injection, moderate to high light and good flow. Dosing with a liquid aquatic plant fertilizer or using a nutritious aquasoil will speed up growth and really bring those vivid colors Alternanthera plants are known for.
Propagation is easy and can be done by trimming anywhere along the stem and replanting into the soil.
