Alternanthera reineckii and 2 Footer Aquarium update

Not really a big fan of stem plants, but I just give it a try on keeping this Alternanthera reineckii 'red' . It has a very nice red stem plant but everywhere I read on net, they always saying that this type of species are difficult to grow. It's been in my tank for almost 10 days, and I can see the grow rate is rather medium even with intense lights and co2. It is in the dirt tank after all! Here are the pics :
