Echinodorus 'Fantastic Color'

Echinodorus 'Fantastic Color' is a bold, showy sword plant with eye-catching red, orange, and green tones that shift depending on light and nutrient conditions. With wide, slightly ruffled leaves and a strong vertical presence, this variety is perfect for creating visual impact in the midground or background of medium to large aquariums.

It grows best with nutrient-rich substrate and regular fertilization, especially iron. CO₂ is not required, but it helps bring out its deepest coloration and fuller growth. A great centerpiece plant that adds energy and contrast to planted layouts.
