Rotala indica ‘Bonsai’ Compact Aquatic Plant for Nano Aquariums

Rotala indica ‘Bonsai’ is a compact, moderate-growing aquatic plant that resembles a smaller version of Bacopa caroliniana. Ideal for creating dense clusters or carpeting effects, it is particularly well-suited for nano aquariums due to its small size and manageable growth.

Key Features:

• Compact Growth : Maintains a smaller, more manageable form, perfect for nano aquariums and smaller tanks.
• Adaptable Coloration : Under high light, the tips of the stems develop a reddish hue; in lower light, leaves grow larger, creating a less compact look.
• Ideal for Group Planting: Plant in small clusters and trim frequently to encourage a dense, lush appearance.
• Propagation by Cuttings: Replant cuttings back into the group for thicker clusters or a carpeted effect.

Care Tips:

• Lighting: High light promotes reddish tips and compact growth, while lower light yields larger, greener leaves.
• Trimming: Regular trimming encourages density and prevents overgrowth.

Rotala indica ‘Bonsai’ adds delicate structure and color variation to aquariums, making it an excellent choice for aquascapers looking to enhance their nano tanks with a versatile, attractive plant.
