DESCRIPTION

Introduction:

Echinodorus cordifolius 'Mini', commonly known as Mini Radican Sword, is a compact cultivar of the popular Echinodorus cordifolius species, known for its attractive, broad leaves and manageable size. Originating from the Americas, particularly the southern United States and Mexico, this miniature version retains the heart-shaped leaves of its larger relatives but stays much smaller, making it ideal for aquariums where space is limited. Its lush green foliage and easy-going nature make it a favorite for aquascapers looking to add a bold, leafy centerpiece in smaller tanks without overwhelming the layout.

Care Requirements:

  • Water Parameters:

    • Temperature: 22–28°C

    • pH Range: 6.0–7.5

    • Hardness: Soft to moderately hard water (2–12°dGH)

  • Nutrient Requirements:
    Echinodorus cordifolius 'Mini' benefits greatly from nutrient-rich substrates, as its strong root system relies on ample nourishment. Root tabs are highly recommended to maintain lush, vibrant growth. CO₂ supplementation is not strictly necessary but will encourage faster, denser foliage. Regular liquid fertilization helps supply additional micronutrients for optimal leaf health.

  • Tank Setup:
    Best suited as a midground or focal point plant in smaller aquariums or as a foreground feature in larger tanks, this plant thrives in fine gravel or nutrient-rich aquasoil. Moderate to high lighting will promote compact, bushy growth, but be mindful of algae control. Ensure gentle to moderate water flow to prevent sediment buildup on the leaves while providing sufficient water circulation.

Care Tips:

Regularly prune older and outer leaves to encourage fresh, compact growth from the plant's center. Avoid shading the plant with taller species to ensure adequate light reaches its leaves. Stability in water parameters will help prevent melting and stress. Once established, Echinodorus cordifolius 'Mini' is a robust and low-maintenance addition to the aquarium.

Echinodorus cordifolius 'Mini' offers aquarists the beauty of large Amazon swords in a compact form, perfect for smaller aquariums and detailed aquascapes. Its lush, heart-shaped leaves and easy care requirements make it a standout choice for hobbyists seeking a reliable and attractive focal plant.
