This aquarium plant is a bit difficult but it’s well worth the effort for an outstanding highlight in your aquarium. Myriophyllum tuberculatum ‘Red’ requires soft water, very high light intensity and supplemental CO2 as well as regular addition of nutrients through the water column. It will stunt quickly if the nutrient level gets too low, but also must be kept in a very clean environment, because any algae will quickly suffocate it. However, if you are willing and able to meet its needs it will add a beautiful flare to your aquarium!
