Echinodorus schlueteri is another “sword” plant whose low, broad growth makes it suitable for small aquariums. The youngest leaves have clear red-brown spots, which turn very light in older leaves. It is generally undemanding, but at high light intensity the red-brown spots become more strongly colored. A nutritious bottom promotes growth.

The plant prefers a nutrient rich substrate and high light and the growth also benefits from CO2 enrichment of the water.
