Rotala macrandra ‘Mini Butterfly’ T/C Cup is a stunning tissue-cultured aquatic stem plant prized for its delicate, compact leaves and brilliant red coloration. Under strong lighting and optimal aquarium conditions, its foliage can develop beautiful shades of pink, orange-red, crimson, and deep ruby red, creating spectacular contrast against green aquatic plants. Its compact, bushy growth makes it an excellent choice for foreground and midground placement in high-tech freshwater aquariums. Strong lighting, consistent CO₂ injection, and balanced fertilization are recommended for healthy growth and intense coloration. Before planting, gently rinse away the culture gel and divide the plants into small portions. Regular trimming encourages branching and creates dense, colorful clusters. Perfect for Dutch-style aquariums and vibrant freshwater aquascapes.
