Alternanthera reineckii "Red" is a striking aquarium plant prized for its intense red to burgundy foliage. Its bold colour makes it an excellent feature plant for adding contrast and depth to planted aquariums and aquascapes.

When provided with good lighting and sufficient nutrients, this plant develops vibrant colouration and compact, attractive growth. It is particularly effective when planted in groups through the midground or background of the aquarium.
