 | rotala rotundifolia in a 55g |
GirlieGirl8519  Fish Master *Malawi Planter* Posts: 1468 Kudos: 1029 Votes: 35 Registered: 25-Mar-2005   | Can I grow rotal rotundifolia (Rotala Indica) in my 55g with 2.45 wpg? I had Rotala Magenta in my 10g with 2 wpg and it wouldn't grow..not enough light I guess. I have one compact fluorescent 6700K bulb and one CF 10000K bulb in the 55g. |
