Here’s a more detailed breakdown of its needs:

Lighting: It can tolerate low to moderate light, but will show more vibrant red coloration with higher levels of light and supplemental CO2.
Water Parameters:
- Temperature: Ideal range is 74-84°F (23-29°C).
- pH: Tolerates a range of 6.0-7.5, but sudden changes should be avoided.
Substrate: It’s a root feeder, so a nutrient-rich substrate like Fluval Stratum or Rio Escuro is recommended. Root tabs can also be used to supplement nutrients.
CO2: While not essential, supplemental CO2 can enhance growth and coloration.
Fertilizers: Balanced liquid fertilizer can be used to ensure optimal growth and coloration.
Growth: It’s a relatively slow to moderate grower.
Propagation: It can be propagated by separating rhizomes from the mother plant.
