EASY Aquarium Plants - Red Plants For Fish Tanks 

Didn't know anything about planted tanks until I started watching this channel now I have a thriving one

"Sexy" 100k times. Lots of mentions of licking too Plants: 7: Rotala indica 6: Ludwigia repens 5: Red tiger lotus (truly red) 4: Indian red sword 3: alternanthera reineckii (truly red) 2: bronze crypt 1: Barclay's longifolia (truly red, holy grail)

Love the ODB jam intro in the background at the start!! “I likes it raw…..”

Dustin, could please put the names of these plants in the description. It would really help us track them down.

I have some sort of red (melon?) sword in my pond. The plant is potted in dirt and I planted it last summer. It did all the awesome stuff like flowering and sending off new plants. This thing is so insanely hearty that it survived the pond freezing over!

This might be the craziest, most hype top list for aquarium plants I've ever seen... lol... well done Man

I saw “sexy red plants” and automatically knew that it was Dustin 😂💕💕

Red plants are great contrast with the rest of the green plants!

now i gotta go listen to shimmy shimmy ya!!

Have tried and successfully grown the below red plants: Ludwigia rubens, dwarf lily, ammannia gracilis (slow growing and more intermediate than beginner plant) and Crypts but they are more brown than red usually. Want to try out some of the red swords and red tiger lotus sometime. Also want to try your #1 red plant if I can ever find it

hey Dustin I feel like I've asked you this before but I can't remember do you ship to canada would only be plants not fish, thanks in advance if you get back to me

love your videos and your enthusiasm for fishes 👍

Literally yesterday I wanted some easy red plants THANK YOU!!!

"The wonderful pink flamingo crypt." So sassy.

Fantastic info on some beautiful RED plants! Thanks Dustin!!!

I like Indica and Sativa. Im not too partial but prefer Sativa

what up Dustin Love the video in Louisville today and loving it. Just started a Planet Aquarium using an organic soil substrate, so much better than sand. Planet are thriving. Thanks

I've got a Barclaya longifolia red bulb planted in a dirted tank and initially it sent up some really nice red leaves, but they were really thin/floppy and fell off. The new growth that's replaced it is green and still doesn't have much rigidity. The leaves don't stand up but Iay flat against the substrate. Any ideas what could be wrong? Thanks.

Dustin should do a video of a full tour of all his tanks

Doope intro track....raw like sushi 👍

The sound equalization is much better on this video. I didn't have to turn my volume up for too-quiet moments, and better yet, no sudden loudnesses - no more ouch! Thank you!

Wigga b keepin fish. Big up yo self.

Odb in da house w the intro song,,,

What are YOUR Favorite Red Aquarium Plants?

Off topic question: Is power head filters or aquariums with streams bad for shrimp?

hey dustin, if you know, can you please tell what type of rocks those are in the tank behind you?

Dustin I need your help I'm trying to find out if or when some type of aquarium expo will be coming to Raleigh NC the plants are limited here and drift wood the only shrimp they have are ghost and cherries and I can't find Taiwan micro crabs frog bit or duck weed to save my life please hit me up my planted tank is thriving because of your insight my family loves your videos loves your insight and loves your delivery you definitely deserve a TV show bro I see it in your future you could probably get funding from the government for a small aquatic wildlife reserve

My ludwigia repens keeps shedding its leaves. I am injecting co2 and have a substrate of flourite and gravel with osmocote diy root tabs. My swords and stem plants are growing great. Even my red tiger lotus seems to love my setup. Is there anything I could try to help the repens survive. I’m also dosing with thrive

My favourite: Myriophyllum tuberculatum Red. I like to call it Red Fox tail plant and it did well as background plant in my low tech planted tank.

Wow.

Someone hire this salesman lol

very nice video. can someone please write the last plant’s name? i couldn’t understand its name

Great list. I second the bronze crypt. Put one in my 90G low light CO2 tank and it "carpeted" the entire tank in about 12 months. Looks awesome too.

Great info, thanks for your time D😁

1:06 I prefer rotala sativa ;)

I love Rotala indica,very easy plant and grows quickly.however, my Rotala indica has lost its redish color,it is just green now. do you have any idea why? is it a sign of Iron deficiency ?

Fantastic information ... wish he showed the names of each of these plants.

I have Red Tiger Lotus In Dirted Containers in my tank under a led shoplight and it grows like crazy !!!

Hey dude, Enjoy watching your vids. Have you ever heard of, or have the Enhinodorus “Purple Knight” Plant ? Any information would be nice. Thank you!

Shimmy shimmy ya, shimmy yam, shimmy yay #RIPODB

Wouldn't using a decent amount of root tabs give you the desired nutrients without having to dirt your tank?

I have had a very bad thing happen to my moss (different types but mostly Java) in all of my aquariums. My moss had been doing quite well for several years but about a month ago all of my moss began to die. This has happened in 16 aquariums. Some of the tanks are located on the first floor and some on the second floor. Nothing different was done with the tanks and no chemicals were added. Any ideas?

No need co²?

echinorodus are heavy root feeders as you said. most people underestimate the number of root tabs they will take.

Rottala indica is hard to maintain tho. It grows like a freaking weed and is hard to get rid of if you dont want it anymore. I love it tho, grows great, and turns a very pretty red.

Can that plant life witout injek c02?

Hey Dustin, thanks for the video!👍

What's the stringy plant with little bumps in the tank behind him

Rotala is actually an introduced species in Florida, not native

I grow ludwigia cuba in low tech conditions just fine.

love the cranium

Love the ODB music !

D! Wheres that denver public aquarium vid!?!

great

How do you even type these names!?

love ya style

Sadly to say, I kill all my rotala rutondifolia/indica I whenever planted them, but yeah, I never experienced melting with crypt..Ever!!! I've gotten a three types of these beautiful crypt plants I think crypt Wendtii red, brown, green and crypt Parva and another one is(nah, I forgot the name😄) but no melting at all. I really bought a lot of these for my 15 gallon tank and fill it to the brink as the middle ground plant.(and put Vallisneria spiralis and vallisneria torta species as background and some ludwigia repens to the side plus dwarf sag and aleocharis in the front and some attached some java fern and java moss to the hardscape) but yeah, no Melting t all from the crypts, I only cut very few of the broken leaves because of the courier/shipment. So I was very, very shock because almost everyone said these crypt will melt. And I also have also have some Echnidorus species in good nutrient substrate.. Sadly It stay small and does not do well, but its other siblings from the same pot does Really Really really well on my small small gravel + sand only 45 gallon tank. Perplexing. In conclusion, buy some of these easy ones and don't be afraid of try them out on different substrate and tanks if you have some extra left of these lying around somewhere..(I dont but I tend to take the risk if it quite a cheap plant, we do have it, I've seen a very cheap Bucephalandra species online, very expensive to very cheap it shocked me to still, which I really need to buy soon with some anubias plants). But then again,I think some of the factor comes from temperature and the weather (I AM FROM MALAYSIA). so some plants don't grow that fast as some youtubers told me before since the water is warm all year round here so we do need extra CO2 for some sensitive plants. And a fan(not a heater) though I never use fans anyway.

So why no eco complete with IRS swords?

Horrible background music But very informative video

Thumbs up for Wu-Tang

Respect for the wu tang music

Nice

why does every plant i buy die back from bottom,it decays?

alternanthera reineckii Never grow in my aquarium It always dies I have a warm water but good dirt with organic frets Is warm water why alternanthera reineckii dies i have rotala indica a red crypt lwdgia all Even hair grass grows but not alternanthera reineckii I love that plant but it don't love me back

Hook me up with my order, Dustin!!!! ;)

It's really hard to get past the opening 10 seconds of this presentation.

Why is it none of Dustins tanks ever look clean? Always cloudy water

you sound tired

You totally butchered the name of Rotala Wallachii it’s wall-a-ki. Not the butchered name you just gave it.

So easy they turn green or die without co2😂

I just like it raw...

That first plant is dead

Say that five times fast

Do you have to scream so much?

Childish .

Amazing music and great info; thank you for your video. WU-TANG FOREVER! I am setting up my 20g with only red plants (dutch style). So far I only have 4 Indonesian algae gobis. Keep up the good work Dustin
