Tropica 1-2-Grow! Alternanthera reineckii "Mini"

The plants are guaranteed to be free from snails, algae and pesticides and therefore are totally harmless for sensitive shrimp and fish.

In a 1-2-Grow! cup you buy a myriad of plants which can be divided into small portions and cover a larger area. Plants are compact from the start so you will experience a dense and beautiful growth, if you give them the right fertilizer and CO2 from the start!

Directions:

1. Carefully take the plant out of the cup and rinse off the growing media under the tap.

2. Split the plant in 6-8 portions using your fingers or sharp scissors (for small foreground plants).

3. Plant portions into the substrate using tweezers. Then watch them grow!

Plant Info:

This miniature version of the well-known Alternanthera is characterized by compact growth and a slower growth rate. It is particularly suitable for small aquariums or as a foreground plant in larger aquascapes. By careful trimming, it is possible to create a dense, red violet carpet of approximately 5 to 10 cm height. High light intensity and addition of CO2 improves the plants growth and overall appearance.
