Rotala Manipurensis Tissue Culture

Rotala Manipurensis features narrow leaves and an overhanging, creeping growth. Quite similar to Rotala Sp. 'Green', it is most likely a variation of its popular counterpart, Rotala Rotundifolia. If grown in ideal conditions, the results are rewarding and Rotala Manipurensis features warm and rich color tones that will provide intense orange contrast when used as a background plant in nano planted aquariums or as a midground in larger sized planted tanks. 

If given a proper environment, Rotala Manipurensis is a fast-growing plant and will require consistent pruning to prevent the bottom leaves from dying off due to lack of lighting and to keep it growing lush.

Tissue culture plants are grown in-vitro by laboratories who specialize in propagating aquatic plants. There is a huge selection of plant species that have been propagated this way. This is truly the best option for those who want absolutely zero unwanted pests, algae and pesticides. This makes them perfect for shrimp keepers and any planted tank enthusiasts alike.

 NOTE:  It is important to remove the tissue culture agar gel before planting. Simply wash the gel away, divide, and plant.
