A cute smaller sword plant for nano tanks!

Rosette sword (Echinodorus parviflorus 'Tropica') grows to about 6 inches high and is much more compact than other sword types!

With a hammered-metal appearance reminiscent of Cryptocoryne wendtii, this easy-to-please sword should be a must in all low tech aquariums.

Swords (Echinodorus) are one of the most difficult aquatic plants to kill, and they are fairly slower growing. They won't need anything special in terms of lighting, filtration, or temperatures, but could use a nutrient rich soil to look their best. 

If they are happy, they'll grow right out of your tank, and may even produce beautiful little white flowers for you. It's rewarding.

Swords are hearty plants, similar to things like Java fern or Anubias; so if you have fish that are nippy and like to dig (small cichlids, loaches, goldfish etc), these plants will work for your set up.

Bare- root sword is 4-8" tall.

Grown EMERGENT

Growing requirements:

  • 65-80 Degrees Fahrenheit
  • Ph 6-8
  • Low to Medium light intensity.
  • Can be grown immersed or submerged
  • Medium growth speed
  • Root tabs recommended

As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers!
