Tissue Culture Plants?
Tissue Culture Plants?
- Size: ~ 2.5x2.5 inch
- Lab Grown Plants
- Snail, Algae & Pest Free
PEST FREE
Tissue Culture plants will not introduce snails, planeria, hydra or other pest into aquariums – no nasty surprises.
ALGAE FREE
It only takes one spore of algae to be present on a plant to introduce it to a tank. Aquarium Tissue Culture Plants are guaranteed algae free.
PESTICIDE FREE
No pesticides are used in the growing of Aquarium Tissue Culture Plants. This makes them especially suited for use in Nano tanks which contain invertebrates such as shrimps and snails – did you know that shrimp and snails are 100 times more susceptible to the effects of pesticides than
VALUE IN EVERY CUP
In general depending on plant type you will receive multiple plants in every cup which means the cost per plant stays Low.
PRESERVE THE NATURE
The aquatic plant industry has been growing rapidly which requires a supply of plants on a large scale. The natural habitats of many of aquatic plant species are shrinking as a result of exploitation and rapid depletion of natural habitats. As a result, most of the aquatic plants are under threat of extinction. Thus, Tissue culture has made a significant contribution for propagation and cultivation of plants suitable for industry while conserving aquatic plants in these natural
CLEARLY IDENTIFIED
Each plant comes in a specially marked pack with common and scientific names, along with handy information such as how tall it will grow, ideal pH and temperature, lighting requirements and even a guide to skill
EASY TO PLANT AND GROW
These plants take only minutes to introduce to a tank – simply remove them from the pack, wash carefully under a tap, and plant! It’s easy. And unlike many bunch plants, these plants already have established roots, so they will settle quickly into your tanks.

Alternanthera reineckii is a beautiful aquatic plant that requires specific lighting conditions to thrive in an aquarium. While it is a forgiving plant, it will not reach its full potential under the standard stock aquarium hood that comes with most kits. To achieve the best results, it is recommended to use a dual to quad T5 high-output fluorescent system or a high-quality, color-tuned, specialty LED unit.
With the right lighting, Alternanthera reineckii will display stunning deep red to purple growth, adding a vibrant touch to your aquarium. Unlike many other fully red plants, this particular variety does not necessarily require CO2 injection. However, like most plants, providing additional CO2 will promote faster growth.
Without CO2 supplementation, Alternanthera reineckii will still thrive, but it will grow at a slower pace. It will form dense patches that will not overgrow their welcome in the aquarium, making it a great choice for aquarists who prefer low-maintenance plants.
Propagation of Alternanthera reineckii is relatively simple. Like all stem plants, you can create new plantlets by manually cutting pieces of the stem that contain nodes and replanting them. This method allows for easy expansion of your plant population, ensuring a lush and visually appealing aquarium.
