Alternanthera Bettzickianais a recommended red plant for beginning hobbyists due to its ease of care.Red plants commonly require high CO2 and nutrients in order to achieve and maintain their vibrant colors. Alternanthera Reineckii is a little more forgiving and will keep its color easier. However, if lack of care is shown, leaves will fade out to an orange hue.
It prefers high nitrates and high phosphates so dosing quality fertilizers are essential which will help speed up growth and maintain colors.
