Giant Val Rubra is a variant of giant vals with leaves that can develop a reddish hue. They act as the perfect background plants, growing tall and fast to create a jungle-like appearance. Vals are grass-like plants that spread alongside shoots and can grow to the height of your aquarium. They are nutrient-loving plants that anchor deep into the substrate.
Notes:
- Vallisneria are heavy root feeders and should be planted deeply in quality aquarium soil.
- Vallisneria grows very large and tall making them suitable for larger planted aquariums.
- Do not make drastic changes to the aquarium. Unstable parameters will result in melt and rotting of the aquarium plant.
- Please be sure to remove this plant from its wrap. Remove the foam surrounding the roots and plant into a quality substrate.
- CO2 injection will yield better growth.
- Please research appropriately to ensure your plant thrives.
