Description
Echinodorus 'Red Diamond' was bred in the Ukraine and is probably a cross between Echinodorus horemanni 'Red' and Echinodorus x barthii. The resultant hybrid is an attractive, relatively small plant with ruby-red sword-shaped leaves, 15-25 cm long.
Unlike many other sword plants, Echinodorus 'Red Diamond' remains moderate in size (20-30 cm wide rosette), so it is extremely well suited as a solitary plant, even in small aquariums. Increasing the nutrients in the substrate results in more abundant growth, while favourable light conditions promote the formation of the ruby-red leaves.

Adapted very quickly, the plant is very nice and the new leaves a lovely pink with frily edges. Would def recommend.
Qualität und Versand wie gewohnt sehr, sehr gut. Ich setze bewusst auf Pflanzen von Tropica und bin bestens zufrieden damit.
Kräftige Pflanze bekommen. Ist schnell angewachsen. Setze sie als Solitär im Mittel/Hintergrund in einem 112l Becken ein. Bodendünger nicht vergessen. (read more)
