Rotala macranda ‘mini gold’ Bunch (NEW/ RARE)

Rotala macrandra ‘Mini Gold’ is a rare and highly sought-after stem plant, prized for its vibrant golden-yellow to orange hues that bring striking contrast to any aquascape. Its compact growth and smaller leaves, compared to standard Rotala macrandra, make it ideal for midground placement or for creating dense, colourful bushes in high-end planted tanks.

Under strong lighting and nutrient-rich conditions, this variety develops its most intense golden tones, often displaying subtle pink highlights. It responds exceptionally well to regular trimming, encouraging bushy, compact growth—perfect for forming a lush, eye-catching focal point.

While slightly more demanding than beginner plants, Rotala macrandra ‘Mini Gold’ thrives with CO₂ injection, stable water parameters, and consistent fertilisation. In the right setup, it grows relatively quickly and rewards aquarists with one of the most unique and vibrant colour displays available in the hobby.
