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!
Customer Reviews
Had great root structure and about 6 leaves. Was only a couple inches tall, but that made no difference, because it's trippled in size and a few babies have sprouted up around it, as I had wanted.
It's yellow roots are rotten
The size is great, and there is good root structure. Unfortunately, it didn’t seem to handle shipping and the delay in shipping very well. Hoping that since the roots look good, it will take off.
Awesome little plants
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
