Ludwigia ovalis is a popular aquatic plant for freshwater aquariums, known for its vibrant reddish-pink leaves. It thrives in moderate to high lighting and benefits from nutrient-rich substrates. Regular trimming encourages bushy growth, making it ideal for background or mid-ground planting. Its adaptability and striking coloration enhance the aesthetic appeal of aquascapes, while also providing shelter for fish and invertebrates. CO2 supplementation can further promote healthy, robust growth.
