Alternanthera Reineckii Regular

Alternanthera reineckii is one of the most reliable ways to bring true red and pink into a planted tank, with lance-shaped leaves that flush from olive tops to vivid magenta undersides. It colors up best under strong light with CO2, but stays attractive even in more modest setups. Group several stems through the midground for a warm splash of contrast against green neighbors.
