Echinodorus quadracostatus is a smaller sword, and only reaches about 4" tall. Very nice size for a smaller aquarium.
Broad Leaf Chain Sword propagates readily by sending out runners.
Very easy-to-keep plant that needs neither Co2 or high lights to thrive.
Narrow Leaf Chain Sword is also available!
Single bare-root plantlet will vary in it's natural state; 3-6" tall
Grown EMERGENT
Growing requirements:
- 65-80 Degrees Fahrenheit
- Ph 6-8
- Low to Medium light intensity
- Moderate growth speed
As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers!

Was looking great when it got here but slowly started dying so I separated them thinking it was light quality but it still turning brown and translucent
A little plant for my new tank. Planted two weeks ago. Some leaves start to turn a little bit translucent, and no melting yet. New roots start to develop.
It came very nicely packaged and was very healthy. In my aquarium it hasn’t really thrived, but I believe that’s due to my lighting which isn’t great. Would recommend, just make sure you have sufficient lighting and good nutrients in the substrate.
The plant arrived with yellowing, but I typically remove the older leaves to prevent melting regardless, so I am not too upset. They are currently growing well and didn’t melt.
Awesome plants! Everything came in great shape and the sellers are super responsive and helpful. The plant comes pretty small, but it was heathy and is continuing to grow! Looking forward to buying from them again soon.
