Large Echinodorus Bleheri Amazon Sword Live Plants – 2 Pack

You will receive 2 large Echinodorus bleheri plants, commonly referred to as Amazon sword plants, each measuring between 20-35 cm long. These plants prefer a deep, nutrient-rich substrate of at least 10 cm depth to support their extensive root system. Known for their rapid growth, Amazon sword plants can produce approximately one new leaf per week, making them a vibrant addition to any aquarium. When planting, ensure that the roots are fully covered in the substrate to promote healthy growth. Be mindful of nutrient absorption, as Echinodorus bleheri can deplete soil nutrients from surrounding plants if planted too closely together. The Amazon sword plant is compatible with most fish and invertebrates, although it is best to avoid pairing it with large cichlids or goldfish. These plants adapt well to various lighting conditions, thriving in both moderate and high illumination without requiring additional CO2 or fertilisation. Their lush foliage brings a tropical feel to any aquarium environment, making them a popular choice for aquascaping enthusiasts.
