Rotala Rotundifolia 'Green'
Rotala Rotundifolia 'Green' (Round-leaved Rotala) is a mid-ground plant. It is characterized by fast growth and moderate light requirements. The color is usually light green.Difficulty of growing: easy Light requirements: medium COβ requirements: not necessary Height of mature plant: 50-60 cm Growth: fast Temperature: 20-28Β°C Placement in aquarium: third level Origin: South Asia, Southeast Asia Cup diameter 6 cm The natural range of the round-leaved Rotalas (Rotala rotundifolia) is South, Southeast and East Asia. It has been spread by humans to Australia, the United States and Brazil, among other places. She is thus already almost a globetrotter.Rotala rotundifolia 'Green' is very similar to Rotala rotundifolia, but its leaves remain bright green even in bright light.
This plant is characterized by its fast growth and its tendency to spread profusely, especially when regularly pruned. It tolerates medium light levels, but the higher the light, the more intense the plant's growth and colors. If left to grow freely, it reaches a length of 30-60 cm, cutting off access to light to the lower parts, where it begins to lose its leaves. Under favorable conditions, if left uncontrolled, it can dominate an entire tank, especially if it is a tank with a small capacity. Once it reaches the surface of the water, it begins to float on it. It does not need additional carbon dioxide fertilization unless you want to accelerate its growth even more.
It is tolerant of pH and water hardness, although like most plants, it cannot tolerate extremes.
It tolerates temperatures between 20 and 28 Β°C, but thrives better in the upper end of this range. It can grow in both an active and a poor substrate, but in this case it is advisable to fertilize under the roots. In well-lit, CO2-fertilized aquariums, it may require additional fertilization with macronutrients due to its rapid growth. Otherwise, it will lose its color and the leaves will become smaller. Rotala rotundifolia is propagated in the aquarium by cutting off stem pieces and placing them in a selected spot in the substrate. When transplanted to a new tank, it will need some time to acclimate and grow faster.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance into the substrate.
Lobelia cardinalis 'Mini'Lobelia cardinalis 'Mini' is a green plant, recommended for the second level of the aquarium and for the paludarium. A very decorative species that is not particularly demanding.Difficulty of growing: easy Light requirements: medium COβ requirements: low Outgrown plant height: up to 20 cm Growth: medium Temperature: 15-28Β°C Placement in aquarium: second level Origin: North America Shell diameter: 6 cm Lobelia Cardinalis mini is a plant native to North America. In nature, it is found in wetlands and riverbanks. It is distributed from the Gulf of Mexico through the eastern states of the United States to southern Canada.
It grows in the ground and has a well-developed root system. The feathery stems can develop auxiliary roots in leafless areas. Its small leaves are bright green, oval with a conspicuous pale central vein.Lobelias can be cultivated in aquariums and paludariums. It thrives in muddy soil as well as underwater. It tolerates temperatures from 15 to 28 Β°C and can also be kept in a pond. It thrives best at 20-23Β°C and requires soft to medium-hard water with a pH between 6.5 and 7.2.Without sufficient light, the leaves turn yellow, but in bright light the undersides of the leaves turn purple. It is not particularly demanding, but regular water changes, fertilizer and COβ support its growth.In the aquarium, lobelia should be planted in a group in the middle ground, but it is also well suited as a foreground plant. Pruning is necessary for the plant to grow well; use scissors to remove older leaves. You can also cut back the entire plant and use the cut tips as cuttings.
Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then set them at intervals of 1 to 2 cm.

Healthy plant growth, prevents deficiency symptoms, ideal magnesium values
Checking of dosage with JBL magnesium test for freshwater
Healthy plant growth is based on the following three main pillars: A supply of light, a supply of CO2 and an adequate/optimal supply of mineral nutrients. The supply of nutrients is described by Liebigβs Law of the Minimum. According to this concept, the nutrient which is available in the minimum amount limits the growth of plants regardless of whether it is a microelement or a macroelement. Microelements are trace elements which plants need in small amounts, whereas macroelements are used for growth in larger amounts.In a well-planted aquarium, both microelements and macroelements are consumed in large amounts. Particularly when the fish population is small, the microelements, as well as the macroelements of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium, quickly drop down to the minimum. The macroelements can easily be supplied by using JBL ProScape NPK Macroelements or by adding each of the individual components, nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium and magnesium, separately. If the latter procedure is selected, it is recommended to check the water values with the JBL Test Set each time.
As the central atom of chlorophyll, magnesium plays the decisive role in photosynthesis, and in the plantβs energy production from light as a result. Magnesium also carries out other important functions in the regulation of enzyme activity and other metabolic processes in the cells. The concentrations of magnesium in the drinking waters usually used in aquariums vary considerably, depending on the water supplier. It is advisable to determine the current magnesium concentration of the water with the JBL Mg Test Set in order to find the right dosage of the JBL ProScape Mg Macroelements fertiliser.JBL ProScape Mg Macroelements supplies tank water with magnesium in the form of water-soluble magnesium salts. As a result, the aquatic plants obtain the supply of magnesium they require.
The normal dosage is 5 ml / 100 l of water for a very well-lit tank with >= 1 W / l of illumination and 2.5 ml/100 l of water for a tank that is not as well lit. The supply of carbon dioxide must also be considered. The following table shows recommended fertiliser concentrations according to the general conditions of the aquarium.As actual precise consumption cannot be predicted, we recommend regularly checking the magnesium concentration with the JBL Mg Test Set, especially prior to each follow-up dose.

π± Echinodorus quadricostatus 'Tenellus' InVitro Grassy ground cover for your aquarium
Echinodorus quadricostatus 'Tenellus ' - often referred to simply as Tenellus - is a popular ground cover for aquariums with a grassy appearance. The narrow, fresh green leaves quickly form dense plant carpets and are ideal for the foreground or midground. The plant is visually similar to Lilaeopsis or Eleocharis, but grows faster and is more robust.
Aqua Art's in-vitro cultivation guarantees a snail and pesticide-free plant - perfect for shrimp tanks, aquascapes and sensitive animals. Tenellus also grows in medium light, spreads via runners and creates a natural "lawn effect" in the aquarium.β Advantages at a glance:
Robust & fast-growing ground cover
Fresh green for near-natural underwater landscapes
InVitro - free from harmful substances, safe for shrimps
Forms dense carpets quickly due to runners
Easy to care for & adaptable - ideal for beginners
Suitable for the foreground or middle groundπ Product details:
Name: Echinodorus quadricostatus 'Tenellus'
Type: Ground cover / foreground plant
Placement: Foreground to midground
Growth height: approx. 5-10 cm
Light requirement: medium
COβ supply: recommended, but not essential
Growth: medium to fast
Propagation: via stolons
Delivery form: In vitro cup (sterile cultivation)
Manufacturer: Aqua Artπ‘ Zoo Roco tip:
Place the plant in small portions with some space between them so that the runners can spread undisturbed. Regular trimming will keep the carpet compact and neat.
