DennisP Posted April 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 $50 would be the cut off point for buying a plant. $100, no way. The red swrd i have is the one that is in the front of your tank. (if you know what one i mean) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 (if you know what one i mean) not in the slightest :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisP Posted April 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 no worries. I think, i want to buy, probably 9, 3 each of 3 species, of tall/background nice leafy swords or soemthing... Know of any? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisP Posted April 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 This ... Red zone = the tall leafy background things. Blue = Something Green = Lots of the "amazon swords" that are constantly on trademe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 There are a couple (can't remember which) that are prohibited imports but they are not available anyway so not to worry. I have: barthii, martii, red rubin, red special, ozelot, leopard, horizontalis, rose, parvifloris "tropica", tenellus parvula, tenellus latifolius, quadricostatis and uraguayensis. Also available are: bleheri, amazonicus, marble queen, cordifolius, argentinesis, tenellus tenellus and probably many more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DennisP Posted April 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Is E. Amazonicus available here? Anyone got any at a reasonable price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 The two common Amazon swords are E. bleheri and amazonicus. Bleheri has a longer stalk and is wider in the leaf and amazonicus has a narrower leaf and it starts almost at the crown. They are both available but not always labelled correctly.
