READ ME: Our aquarium plants vary in growth forms and will require time to transition to submerged or emersed conditions. We do our best to clean and inspect all plants prior to shipping but do not guarantee them to be snail free unless tissue culture is purchased.

Tissue culture plants are cultivated in sterile lab settings ensuring your plant is free from pests, snails and algae! These are young specimen that are grown in emersed forms. Gel should always be removed prior to planting.

Live plants are susceptible to stress and damage from transit. - This may appear in the form of minimal melt, leaf loss, cosmetic damage, etc. Refunds or replacements will not be issued for plants with viable root systems or that die out of our care.


Rotala Narrow Leaf Red features narrow leaves with bright reddish hues. A new Glass Aqua favorite for red aquarium plants, this species of Rotala is relatively undemanding and easy to grow. Rotala Narrow Leaf Red's appearance is similar to Rotala Rotundifolia with slightly longer leaves. The ease in both obtaining and retaining bright, bold red colors with Rotala Narrow Leaf Red quickly makes it a favorite. 

We recommend providing standard care for Rotala species, and then some. High quality, nutritious aquarium soil, good LED lighting, CO2 injection and regular fertilizing are a great start for obtaining bushy, vibrant growth. Rotala Narrow Leaf Red would work beautifully in Dutch style planted aquariums or as a simple red aquarium plant accent in the background of nature aquariums. Propagation is the same as other Rotala species and aquatic stem plants in general. Snip along the stem and replant into the soil. Rotala are quick growing species and will require consistent pruning to prevent overgrowth and the shading of lower portions.
