Echinodorus Chocolate Marble is an exciting and rare hybrid sword plant, prized for its highly variegated blotched pattern that sets it apart from traditional Amazon Swords. This striking marbled coloration is what gives the plant its unique name, making it a standout choice for aquascaping enthusiasts looking to add a bold, decorative element to their aquarium.

Just like the classic Amazon Sword, this plant has the potential to grow tall and robust, making it ideal for larger aquariums where it can develop to its full size. With proper care, it creates an eye-catching focal point in freshwater setups, providing both aesthetic beauty and practical benefits for aquatic life.

• CO₂ Supplementation: While not required, CO₂ injection can significantly improve growth rate and coloration.
