Rotala Indica 'Bonsai' is a rare and hard to find an aquarium plant and should not to be confused with the common Rotala Indica. Rotala Bonsai grows much slower compared to other aquatic stem plants, making it suitable for smaller planted tanks. Rotala Bonsai sometimes referred to as Ammania Bonsai, is considered harder to keep and not suitable for beginners due to its more demanding care. It often melts when planted submerged right away so it helps to grow it emerged first to allow it to establish itself, then slowly transition it to submerged conditions. 

Under high lighting, CO2 and the addition of fertilizers, the tips of the stems will develop a reddish-orange hue, making this aquarium plant a beautiful choice for all planted tanks.
