Product Description

This Rotala species comes from India, where it grows in dimly lit freshwater. Rotala Bossii is a rare variant that is similar in appearance to the popular Rotala Rotundifolia, but this plant remains green. Like most Rotala species, this stem plant is fast-growing and easy to care for and propagate, and due to its size looks best in the background or midground of the aquarium, where its beautiful red leaves can contrast with the green of the foreground.

My tank LOOKS BOMB

My tank LOOKS BOMB
The plants came quickly, very well packaged, and took off almost immediately. Minimal melt (which was a pleasant surprise as they seemed to be emersed cut stems). My tank looks absolutely amazing. The prices can't be beat and how many individual stems are in a single bunch was astounding. I expected only like 4 stems based on when I've ordered bunches of plants from other sellers in the past. I'll definitely be ordering more from this seller in the future when I'm working on another tank setup.

Style: Rotala BossiiSize: 1 BunchVerified Purchase
The plants, two different kinds, that I received were about two inches in length. I could Barely Get them to stay in the substrate with having a little bit above the substrate line. One set totally turned black and dissolved. The other two buddles were fine. I went to petco and baught the same plants three time the same for half the price.

Shipping was average as far as care. Plants have taken off and the attached photo is about 4 weeks in my Indonesian tropical 75g. Had 0 melting and they’ve propagated with very little encouragement in a low tech, 0 co2, 78 degree tank.

The plants were not healthy. I made a mistake of not raining pics right away. I was working on 5 tanks at the same time. But when these plants did not make it, I reached out to the seller. Unfortunately don’t have a way of taking pics of dead disintegrated plants.

This plant came very small, the description did not say it would be cuttings from the plant which it is. The plant was less than 3inches tall and difficult to plant due to its size.

No roots. Just cuttings. Died in a matter of week unable to produce roots as there were none when the miniature stems with leaves arrived. Don’t waste your money. Very disappointed.
