Description:

Echinodorus uruguayensis is a good sword plant variety to use in the background areas of the aquarium.  Long slender green leaves help Echinodorus uruguayensis to form a nice back drop in the aquarium.  Plant Echinodorus uruguayensis in groups of 3 or more for the desired background look.
