The pretty Alternanthera reineckii rosanervig, as it is scientifically called, is a great splash of color in the aquarium and loosens up green plant colonies class. Sometimes the small rosanervige parrot leaf is also called A. cardinalis variegata. Since it can be trimmed without problems, it forms dense bushes in which especially shrimps like to stay. Its care is relatively simple, with good lighting and a supply of nutrients as well as CO2 its pink color can be intensified.
The parrot leaf reaches a height between 10-40 cm and is therefore suitable for the foreground-middle ground and can be kept in shape by cutting back. The great aquatic plant is propagated via cuttings. To do this, these are simply put back into the substrate and compact the stock.
As an in vitro plant, A. reineckii pink was produced in a plant laboratory and is therefore free of parasites, germs or algae or other stowaways. Furthermore, because no pesticides or plant protection products were used in the culture, it can also be used directly in the shrimp aquarium. To do this, rinse the culture medium under running water beforehand and place the individual shoots in the substrate at a slight distance from each other.
Our recommendation: For a magnificent plant growth we recommend the use of the NatureHolic fertilizer series and for new set up the Premium Nutrient Substrate NatureHolic GroundBooster.
