'Nanjenshan' (Mayaka rosa) is a tertiary stem plant. It is native to Taiwan, where it occurs near the town of Nanjenshan, from which it takes its name. It is probably a natural hybrid of the round-leaved Rotala (Rotala rotundifolia) and Rotala wallichii. Both the stem and the leaves are light green in color. The tips of the stems may change color depending on growing conditions. It is characterized by its delicate structure.
The leaves are whorled on the stem in groups of 3-6, up to 2 cm long and only 0.1-0.2 cm wide. It is described as moderately demanding. It tolerates temperatures between 20-28°C and likes soft to hard water. Optimum pH is between 6.0-7.0.
Rotala sp. Nanjenshan' is a fairly demanding plant in terms of light conditions. Its best growth is ensured by bright and long lighting, even 12-14 hours per day. A symptom of insufficient light is a thin stem and a lighter color of the leaves, especially in the lower part. In extreme cases, the lack of light leads to the death of the plant. Therefore, it should not be planted too densely. It can grow in a variety of substrates.The CO₂ dosage and supplementation with nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus fertilizers is advisable. If the iron content is sufficiently high, the crowns will turn red. Rotala sp. "Nanjenshan" likes large water changes, up to ⅓ of the aquarium water volume. Due to the delicacy and small size of its leaves, it is particularly suitable for aquariums with small fish or for a general aquarium with young fish. Like any stem plant, it looks best in a group. Tall stems with small leaves tolerate regular pruning well. The resulting cuttings, inserted into the substrate every few inches, quickly form a striking green background for other plants and decorations. As a terrestrial plant, it blooms with single flowers.

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 °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.

Rotala macrandra sp. 'Pearl'
Rotala sp.' Pearl'. Rotala sp. 'Pearl' has tiny, delicate leaves that curve downward. These can shine in shades of green, pink and purple and look very graceful.Difficulty of cultivation: mediumLight requirement: highCO₂ requirement: highAdult plant height: up to 25 cmGrowth rate: mediumTemperature: 18-30°CAquarium location: middle ground, nano aquariumOrigin: AsiaCup diameter 6 cmVery small-leaved stem plant is a selection of Rotala macrandra. It is also known as Rotala sp. 'Pearl'. This form has downward curved, short leaves. It needs strong lighting, rather soft water and good CO2 and nutrients are recommended. Like Rotala macrandra 'Mini Type 2', 'Pearl' is probably a mutant of Rotala macrandra 'Green'. It tends to produce shoots that are the same as 'Green' Often these appear very soon after planting. These shoots grow much faster and maintain the growth pattern typical of 'Green'. They should be cut as soon as they appear to maintain the dwarf form typical of 'Pearl'. Propagation by cuttings can also be selected by replanting only the 'Pearl'-typical shoots. This dwarf form of Rotala macrandra comes into its own as a group in the foreground or middle ground, also and especially in nano aquariums.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..

Bucephalandra sp. 'Wave leaf'
Bucephalandra sp. "Wave leaf" Bucephalandra sp. "Wave Leaf" is an aquarium plant that can grow on rocks and roots. An endemic species from the Indonesian island of Borneo. The rhizome of the plant should not be buried in the soil.Difficulty of growing: easyLight requirements: lowCO₂ requirements: lowHeight of mature plant: 10 cmGrowth: slowTemperature: 22-28°CPlacement in aquarium: second levelOrigin: Borneo Island, Southeast AsiaCup diameter: 6 cmAlthough the Bucephalalander has been known to botanists since the mid-19th century. Century is known, it enjoys in the aquaristics only for about a decade of growing popularity. The genus name refers to the name of Alexander the Great's beloved horse, Bucephalus. Bucephalandra sp. Wavyleaf was found in the wild in the riparian rivers of Borneo. Its characteristic feature is the relatively narrow and long leaves of deep green color with wavy edges.In terms of overall structure and requirements, it resembles the popular Anubias. Aquascapers like to use this plant in arrangement design because it requires little maintenance due to its moderate growth. Bucephalandra can be successfully cultivated in paludariums, but the leaves above water are thicker and differently colored.Bucephalandra sp. 'Wave Leaf' overgrows rushing streams and rivers with strong currents in the wild. It is also commonly found on the slopes of waterfalls. In the aquarium, it can therefore be successfully planted near the filter outlet or the circulating pump.This variety of Bucephalandra is easy to grow and therefore recommended for beginners. It has a wide range of tolerable parameters. It grows in both soft and hard water, with a GH of 0 - 30. pH should be between 5 and 8. It can thrive in partial shade and even in shade, although it looks more colorful in intense lighting.The propagation is similar to that of Anubias. It forms derived rhizomes that emerge from the main part of the plant. To obtain new cuttings, simply cut off the side shoots. If it stays on the mother plant, it forms a nice, compact growth. In the background, attached to a root or rock, it cuts a fine figure. Its adhesive roots grow very strongly into the pores of rocks or roots. After some time, the grip is so strong that it is practically impossible to remove the plant without scissors or a knife. Bucephalandra can also be planted in loose and porous substrate, such as lava, but be sure to avoid covering the rhizome. Planted deep in the substrate, it loses its leaves and dies. In addition to aquariums, this species is also well suited for paludariums, but the humidity must always be kept high. Otherwise, the leaves of Bucephalandra will dry out and die.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 on the selected items.

Pogostemon stellatus (star plant)
Pogostemon stellatusPogostemon stellatus is a stem plant that does well in the third level of an aquarium. It shows a medium growth rate with beautifully colored leaves.. Growing difficulty: challengingLight requirements: highCO₂ requirements: highGrown plant height: up to 40 cmGrowth rate: mediumTemperature: 19-29 °CPlacement in aquarium: Third levelOrigin: Asia and AustraliaCup diameter 6 cmPogostemon Stellatus (Stellate whorl) is a beautiful plant that does well in the third level in an aquarium. This species is native to Southeast Asia, but it can also be found in Australia. It is one of the most beautiful stem plants in aquaristics. Depending on conditions, leaf colors can range from green to a beautiful muted red. The underside of the elongated leaves often turns bright purple. The plant has average growth and relatively high requirements. It is not recommended for aquarium novices. It should be provided with a nutrient-rich substrate from which the root system can absorb all the minerals necessary for growth. It can be kept in a wide range of water temperatures between 19 and 29 °C. It grows in water of medium hardness, but prefers soft water of 1-13 dH with a pH of 5-7. Strong lighting, CO₂ dosage and micronutrient fertilization are required for good and trouble-free growth. With a low content of trace elements, especially iron, in the water, the leaves turn light green to yellow. It is normal for this species to temporarily limit its growth. After forming some offspring shoots, the plant resumes its growth. Pogostemon Stellatus can be propagated vegetatively. Simply cut the stem to a few inches in height. Then stick the cut part into the substrate, where it will take root after some time. The plant can also be kept well in the paludarium. However, it should receive a high humidity of over 80%, a temperature of 30-35 °C, a nutrient-rich substrate and intense lighting. Planting: Remove the plant from the cup and rinse the gel thoroughly under running water. A good option is to place the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Then separate the cuttings and place them in the substrate..
