💧 Care Requirements

Light
– Medium to high light is ideal.
– High light brings out orange/red tones and tighter internodes.
– Low light = greener, looser growth.

CO₂
– Strongly recommended.
– With CO₂, it becomes denser, more colorful, and easier to shape.
– Without CO₂, growth is slow and may become leggy.

Water Parameters
| Parameter | Ideal Range |
|———-|————-|
| Temperature | 22–28°C |
| pH | 6.0–7.2 |
| GH | 4–10 |
| KH | 1–6 |

Soft, slightly acidic water gives the best coloration and compactness.

Nutrients
– Needs consistent macro and micro fertilization.
– Iron helps intensify orange/red tones.
– Clean water and stable parameters prevent melting.

✂️ Trimming & Shaping
This is where Rotala bonsai becomes truly “bonsai.”

– Trim frequently to encourage side shoots and bushy growth.
– Top‑cutting works best: cut 3–5 cm above the substrate.
– Replanting tops is optional; the base will sprout new shoots.
– For a “mini tree” effect, trim the sides and let the top dome naturally.

🌿 Placement in Aquascapes
– Foreground bushes in Iwagumi layouts
– Midground clusters behind stones
– Nano tanks where scale matters
– Perfect for creating miniature hedges or tree-like mounds
