The Cuban leaf red water grass is a kind of water grass suitable for novice breeding, and the breeding difficulty is relatively low. But if you want to keep it good and beautiful, you need to control the water temperature, hardness, acidity and alkalinity, as well as light intensity and carbon dioxide concentration, fertilizer and so on. Healthy red water grass with Cuban leaves will have red silk on the leaves and bright color. When there is a problem with the water quality in the tank, the red water grass on the bottom of the Cuban leaf will have pathological changes and produce red spots.
1. Water temperature: The red water grass under the Cuban leaf is mainly distributed in Cuba. Therefore, it is better to control the water temperature above 20 degrees Celsius when breeding, which can adapt to higher temperatures, but can not survive in low temperatures.
2. Hardness: It is better to control the hardness of water between 2 and 15 when cultivating the red water grass with Cuban leaves. They vary in color depending on the hardness of the water.
3. Acidity and alkalinity: Like other aquatic plants, Cuban red water plants need to survive in a weak acid or neutral environment. Under alkaline conditions, it will affect their health.
4. Illumination: It is necessary to control the illumination at a certain intensity when cultivating the red water grass with Cuban leaves. It is better to control the illumination intensity between 1500 and 2000 Lux.
5. Carbon dioxide: Carbon dioxide must be added if you want to cultivate the Cuban red water grass. A certain concentration of carbon dioxide can make aquatic plants healthier and more beautiful.
6. Fertilizer: It is necessary to fertilize the water regularly. Covering can prevent them from nutrient deficiency and the phenomenon of withered and yellow leaves.
