Ammania senegalensis is a beautiful with almost orange red plant. Stem Propagation is by cuttings, which should be at least 10 inches long. The width of each stem is about 2 to 4 inches, based on leaf growth. The orange red leaf is curved in a downward fashion in an arch.
In order to achieve strong shoots the substrate should be rich nutrient and high light intensity. Four to nine strong specimens can be used for the midground area to help accent the shades of green aquarium plants. Ammania Senegalensis grows much better in soft water. Can withstand temperature from 53.6 to 86 degrees. But grows optimally temperature is 71.6 to 82.4 degrees.
Ammania Senegalensis requires high lighting intensity (3 - 4 watts/gal). If kept in low-light tanks the leaves take on a dirty brown color. Separate each stem and plant individually. This will result in better growth and the lower leaves will still receive some light as the this aquarium plant grows taller. Ammania senegalensis definitely needs an adequate source of the gas CO2 (carbon dioxide), and you would need to use use Laterite or substrate nutrient balls or tablets in your aquarium.
