Alternanthera Reineckii 'Mini' - Tropica 1-2 Grow!

Product Description

Alternathera Reineckii ''Mini' is a miniature version of the popular Alternanthera. This plant displays compact and low growth, making it perfect for small aquariums or larger aquariums as a foreground plant. It has lovely red and violet colours. Maximum height is around 10-15cm. High light and CO2 injection improves the growth rate and overall health of the plant.

Plant info

Type: Stem
Origin: Cultivar
Growth rate: Medium
Height: 5 - 10+
Light demand: Medium
CO2 : Medium

How to plant your tissue culture plants:
  1. Remove plant from packaging
  2. Rinse and wash away any gel/liquid
  3. Divide plant into 6-8 portions
  4. Plant directly into your substrate
Each pot has a diameter of 60mm. All tissue culture plants are free from snails, algae and pesticides. The cups can be kept for a relatively long time before planting (sometimes weeks) meaning you can plant when you are ready. Keep in a cool place, sub 20 degrees and out of direct sunlight. Tissue culture plants are young plants with strong roots and are in much better health than their potted versions. Only open cups before planting to avoid contamination. CO2 and good fertilization will promote healthy growth.

Brilliant Verified Purchase

This is a general review of aquarium gardens & not just this plant. I have now placed 3 orders, one over a hundred quid & 2 small orders. All were so well packed, it makes you wonder how long it to to pack each plant as it took me ages to unpack them. Every single plant so far has been absolutely perfect. I'm not that experienced with aquatic plants so the instructions on the website for each plant are very helpful. Would definitely recommend aquarium gardens.

Great quality plants, happy customer

Happy to wait a couple of days just to receive good healthy plants.

Very pleased with the quality of plants and with their great customer service.

I've been using Aquarium Gardrns for well over a year. I have 4 aquascapes and make changes to these frequently. Everything always arrives packaged well. I have built up a good relationship with the team. I recommend these guys to anyone that asks where I get plants and equipment from. The shop is well worth a visit too if you're ever in the area.

  • Vibrant plants

    Ordered plants from here a few times and it has always been a great service. Plants are always healthy and packaged well. Excellent service and quick delivery

    Joe Dade / 23rd Jan 2025

  • Superb quality plants.

    Superb quality plants. Delivered quickly and packaged superbly. I won’t be going anywhere else to get my aquarium plants and aquascaping equipment.

  • Best UK Aquascaping

    Dave and the guys at Aquarium Gardens are without doubt the leaders in their field of Aquascaping. My wife and I have visited several times over the last couple of years and have always received fantastic advice and guidance. Two years ago we had one small tank, we now have three aquascapes all running CO2, this definitely wouldn’t be possible without all the support from the guys at Aquarium Gardens. Carry on doing what you’re doing because your business model is superb…..thanks once again Malcolm & Cheryl Orgill

  • Quick service, fantastic plants

    I have ordered from Aquarium Gardens for the first time after seeing them on social media. Well what can I say except WOW, the plants were a really good price, they arrived on time actually quicker than I expected! They arrived in absolutely fantastic condition as if I had picked them out myself, well packaged. The plants themselves were bigger than what I expected to get so definitely value for money and the root systems were well established, can't wait to see them get bigger in my aquariums. Will definitely buy from this company again.
