Eco Plant - Ludwigia Super Mini Red - small cup invitro

About the Ludwigia Super Mini Red plant:
The plant adds charm to any water tank, thanks to its colorful appearance. The variously colored leaves grow in pairs opposite each other on a long and sturdy stem. The plant is not demanding in terms of care. However, the deep red coloration of the plant will require appropriate lighting and a high iron content. 

When planted in clusters of 5 - 10 pieces in the background, it looks extraordinarily stunning and visually increases the volume of the aquarium. 
Ludwigia Super Mini Red can also serve as a background plant in nano aquariums.


The plant can be easily propagated by trimming and inserting new cuttings into the substrate. The substrate should contain a considerable amount of macro and micronutrients.

To maintain and propagate the plant, Neo Tabs Plant Fe and Neo Tabs Plant st.Long fertilizers are sufficient.

When planting, the clumps should be spaced 2.5 cm apart to encourage faster growth.

The addition of CO2 and soft water will significantly accelerate growth. This plant can grow quickly and will require regular trimming when cultivated under the right conditions.
