SWORD NARROW LEAF CHAIN POT (ECHINODORUS TENELLUS)
Arrived healthy. Looks amazing

Prolific grower!
This form of Pygmy sword is NOT the compact short version you see in George farmers scapes. This version is much taller, leaves that are about 5-6” and could be a mid ground/ background plant in a nano scape. With good CO2 and ferts these will take off and send off so many runners. If you can’t get these to take off, something isn’t right in your aquarium.

Narrow Leaf Chain Sword- Awesome!
In just one week in a new tank I already have a chain with 3 new sprouts on it. I hadn't planned on this being a carpet plant, but it may just become one on it's own.
