This plant rooted within two weeks, and is growing slow, but growing good. Needs CO2. Lower leaves on my plants are getting algae, but 4 inches up the plant is very healthy and growing good. Haven't trimmed yet as I have with other plants. I was told by aquariumplants.com they will grow better if planted side by side individually in substrate, not bunched in cluster in weights.

My new Rotala magenta (narrow leaf) is doing very well with CO2 supplementation. I have an automated CO2 system programmed to add Co2 until the pH drops from 7.5 to 6.9. I also have metal halide lighting. The new growth (I received my plant about 2 weeks ago) is very red- redder than the old growth-but it wouldn't be without the CO2. All these red stem plants seem to need the CO2 in order to obtain maximum growth and bright red coloring,-eve more so than the metal halide lighting-so if you don't have CO2 you should stick with green plants.
