Alternanthera Reineckii Mini

Alternanthera Reineckii Mini

The dwarf form of the iconic Alternanthera reineckii, AR Mini packs all the vivid rose-red beauty of its larger cousin into a compact, low-growing package. Its small, richly coloured leaves hug the substrate level, making it one of the finest foreground and midground red plants available — perfect for creating bold colour carpets, defined colour zones, or striking contrast patches in Nature Aquarium and iwagumi layouts.

Why Aquarists Love It:

• Compact, low-growing habit — ideal for foreground and midground colour accents
• Rich rose-red to deep pink colouration that intensifies under strong light
• Tissue culture — 100% pest, snail, and algae-free guaranteed
• Slow, controlled growth — stays tidy with minimal trimming
• One of the most popular red foreground plants in competitive aquascaping

Each tissue culture cup is lab-grown and hand-inspected at KowloonAquarium — clean, healthy, and ready to add a bold splash of red to your aquascape.
