About this item

Amazon Sword Bleheri is very common in the aquarium hobby, as they offer excellent and attractive coverage to the background of an aquascape.
Amazon sword plants can get very large, making them a great fit for a larger tank.
With a nutrient rich substrate these plants will tolerate most lighting conditions, but moderate to high lighting is ideal. CO2 injection is not necessary but will help the plant grow faster if desired.
Amazon sword plants will grow submersed or emersed. Emersed plants produce lovely white flowers.
SubstrateSource carefully conducts thorough inspections on every plant prior to shipment and ensures secure packaging for safe delivery.

Product Description

Adding a SubstrateSource Amazon Sword (Echinodorus bleheri) to your freshwater aquarium helps create a natural look for your tank. This plant is known for it's bright green color and bold appearance. As it grows, this plant helps purify your water by absorbing nitrate nutrients. This plant can be grown with moderate light fully submersed under water. We like to position our Amazon Swords towards the back of the aquarium where they can take advantage of deeper substrate and grow out to their full potential as a background plant. Potted plants are grown in 2-inch slotted or mesh plastic pots. The pots are made out of recycled plastic. Potted plants are grown without soil in rockwool media. The rockwool media allows the plants to grow in a clean, soil-free environment, ready to ship. To prepare your plant for the aquarium, first gently remove the pot. SubstrateSource Plant Guide: A plant guide is included with this plant.

Great value for money

Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2024

Style: Amazon SwordSize: 3 Pots (12-15 Plants)Verified Purchase

So first things first, these are grown immersed and not submerged so when you put them in your tank expect the original leaves to die off and new leaves to grow. The new leaves will be longer and wider and look amazing.. anyways great vale for the money, I purchased the 3 planted pots and I think each pot came with 4-5 plants.

Mostly arrived in bad shape. Only 1 or 2 leaves or still alive. Will promote plant life with plant food. Hopefully will grow better in the future.

New foilage growing in less than a week! Wow

Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2018

Style: Amazon SwordSize: 1 Pot (4-5 Plants)Verified Purchase

So beautiful, it came two days earlier than estimated so unfortunately it sat in the hot metal mailbox in 90+ degree heat for at least 24 hours, would have been 48 hours had I not ordered something else that was coming that day... but despite that, it was fully intact! I only had to remove one leaf due to the heat shriveling it. This is my first ever live aquarium plant (besides moss balls) so if all keeps growing well I will definitely make my tank a fully planted one.. but anyway- there were no snails, no worms or pests of any kind and the roots were strong, long and white.. very happy to say in less than a week the leaves have stretched out, and I have a new leaf coming up from the center.. My skirt tetras are extremely satisfied swimming in between the leaves and hiding! Love, love, love it.

Lots of yellow and dying leaves. I ordered two sets. They did have about 6 plants per bundle. Did have a warmer pack in package, it was cold. After adding to my tank they melted. Thats kinda expected but I didn’t expect them to look so miserable straight out of the package. I have 3 plants per bundle that I think will make it. Buy at your own risk. I’ll go back to buying from my local fish store.
