DESCRIPTION

Echinodorus bleheri – Description

Echinodorus bleheri, commonly known as the Amazon Sword, is one of the most iconic and widely used aquarium plants. Native to South America, it is valued for its large, broad leaves and striking presence, making it an ideal background or centerpiece plant in medium to large aquariums. Its bright green foliage provides a lush, natural backdrop, and its sturdy rosette growth forms a dense, visually appealing structure.

This species thrives in nutrient-rich substrate and moderate to strong lighting. CO₂ supplementation is optional but encourages faster, fuller growth and enhances leaf coloration. Echinodorus bleheri spreads through runners, producing new plantlets that fill the aquarium with healthy, long-lasting foliage. Hardy and adaptable, it tolerates a range of water conditions, making it suitable for both beginner and experienced aquascapers seeking a dramatic, low-maintenance centerpiece.
