Alternanthera reineckii 'Purple' needs plenty of light to grow and form dark-red leaves. In open aquariums it grows willingly up through the surface, and like other difficult plants growth improves considerably if CO2is added. Shortage of micronutrients results in pale leaves. Like other stem plantsAlternanthera reineckii 'Purple' is best in groups.
