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 Macrandra 'Mini Butterfly' is a delicate aquarium stem plant known for its vibrant red to magenta hues and dense form. Macrandra cultivars have been a longtime favorite for the aquascaping community—they come in a variety of colors, sizes, shapes and difficulty levels. Unlike Rotundifolia, Macrandra variations can be temperamental and will quickly reflect the conditions in a planted tank.

Start with soft water, stable CO2 injection and high lighting. Rotala Macrandra ‘Mini Butterfly’ is best suited for high tech tanks and will also need a quality liquid aquatic plant fertilizer for proper growth and good color. Adjusting a main element, like lighting or nutrients, will produce different results. On top of this, keeping all parameters consistent is a must as any dips or fluctuations will easily cause stunted growth. If successful, it is a fast growing stem plant that will be a visual gem in any aquascape. When planting, be sure to give each stem enough space for even light distribution and uniform growth.
