Amazon Sword

The Amazon Sword (Echinodorus amazonicus) is a popular and visually striking aquatic plant known for its large, sword-shaped leaves. Its vibrant green color and tall growth make it an excellent centerpiece or background plant in any aquarium.

Amazon Swords thrive in a temperature range of 72-82°F and prefer moderate to high lighting. They do best in nutrient-rich substrates and benefit from regular fertilization. While CO2 supplementation can enhance their growth, it is not strictly necessary, making them suitable for a variety of tank setups.
