Can anyone provide some general parameters for growing Rotala Wallichi?
The leaves seem to be consideralby shorter than when I purchased the plant. Only the new growth is a vibrant red. What conditions does it perfer?
I have now trasnferred it to a 90G tank w. 4 Watts 10,000k Aquasun / gallon, NO3 5pmm, PO4 is running at .6ppm which is higher than usual for my tank. KH 4, Ph 6.7- 6.8, moderate fish load, Flourite, no substrate fertilizer for the RW,74-76 F.
Generally, what promotes the reds in Rotala species?
Thanks for the help,
Peter
