Do not make drastic changes to the aquarium. Unstable parameters will result in melt and rotting of the aquarium plant. If your plants are healthy (both new and old leaves) but the leaves are curled more than usual, try increasing calcium levels in the tank. In a week or two, the cutting should begin putting out white roots from the nodes on the stem, indicating you’re ready to transfer your plant to the substrate in your aquarium. I advise using a small terracotta pot filled with suitable aquarium soil or a mix of sand and nutrient-rich gravel. Provide suitable growing conditions, including appropriate lighting, nutrient supplementation, and stable water parameters. Leaf Coloration: The leaves exhibit vibrant red or pink coloration, adding a striking visual appeal to the aquarium.
Leaf Coloration: The leaves display a range of colors, including red, pink, orange, and green, depending on the lighting conditions and nutrient availability. If the plants are to be placed in a small aquarium, you may want to plant them by groups at the center. At the strike of light, the coloration display will be an amazing sight.Also known as AR mini by aquarists, this bushy and well-branched stem plant can also be grown in its miniature form. Its dwarfed form can suit any size of aquarium, even nano tanks.
In this case leaves that are under water are no longer needed and the plant sheds them. That’s why the top of the stem should be timely cut off, when it reaches the water surface. When trimming, it prefers not to be uprooted & replanted. This means that better results are obtained by cutting off tall shoots and allowing new side shoots to sprout naturally from the remaining base. This technique is scary for newer aquarists as it means you cut off the healthiest looking top portions of the plant, but it gives a denser bush over time and recovery time is actually reduced for this species. You can replant the cut top elsewhere.Argentina, submersed in the remaining water of a former river with a loamy-stony substrate in sunny-shaded conditions. The temperature was 15.5°C (60°F) with a pH value of 6.1 and GH of 2°dH. August Heinrich Rudolf Grisebach (1814-1879), a German-descent botanist and likewise a phytogeographer. Griseb. is his pseudonym when attributing his works from a botanical point of view.) Prime Description To propagate the AR-Mini version, cut the stems and simply replant individually or by group. Whether you prefer its natural or dwarfed form, there is neither difficulty nor distinction in its propagation. There is not much of a distinction between the two forms. The plant on its emersed state is capable of producing flowers and can form into a long stem with prolonging internodes. The submersed form, on the other hand, displays an intense coloration. Notable Characteristics Although it’s down to personal choice, I think this beautiful red plant looks especially spectacular when displayed against a dark substrate with lots of brightly colored fish, such as Chili rasboras and Neon tetras darting among its leaves. Lighting Requirements
Make it a habit to prune the tops of the AR plants on a bi-weekly or monthly basis. Doing so will help your Roseafolia achieve a fuller or bushier appearance. This will also keep your plants neat-looking and ensure that the lowest leaves can still get sufficient light. Propagating Temperature: This plant is not tolerant of very low temperatures and is sensitive to temperature fluctuations. The ideal water temperature range for the plant is 71 – 82°F (22 – 28°C). The water should be slightly acidic, with a pH between 5.0 and 7.5. Remember that if you’re using aquarium soil, that usually slightly lowers the pH naturally.

Space the holes based on the desired spacing between each plant. Make sure the holes are deep enough to accommodate the roots of the plant.
Identify a healthy Alternanthera plant with side shoots (new growth emerging from the leaf axils or nodes along the stem).

Alternanthera is slower growing compared to other stem plants and the AR "mini" version can grow very compact. Due to its slower growth nature, it is more forgiving with regards to nutrients or CO2 demand. Using a soil based substrate helps a lot in having stable growth in this particular species. Variable; the main AR plant can be planted in aquariums that have a capacity of 20 gallons and above, while the AR Mini variant can be used in nano tanksUp to now, this small Alternanthera has mainly been used in Dutch-style aquascapes (e.g. by Michael Kloos). There it is a beautiful red contrast to green plants of low to medium height and forms an optical counterpart of higher-growing red plants that are placed at some distance. In the "Asian" nature aquarium style it has hardly ever been used, though. However, it might be an interesting red accent in a group of Staurogyne repens, a plant with a similar leaf form but a fresh green colour. References and further reading: Lastly, provide good substrate, sufficient nutrients, and sufficient lighting. Managing algae growth is important as well. The plant’s growth rate will highly depend on the tank’s condition. Aquarium Substrate In this section, you will learn the basics of Alternanthera care; this includes how to plant and propagate Roseafolia and how to boost or supplement its growth after it has adjusted to your aquarium. Ideal Tank and Water Parameters planning a paludarium, the malarial quality is a must. Either way, the versatility can be appreciated. Even though our plants are very clean, but we can't guarantee they will be 100% pest-free because we cannot be responsible for your aquarium. Please use it at your own risk. We recommended all customers rinse the plants with clean water and quarantine them before use.
