nabokovfan87 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Amazon Sword would be my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knee Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 First plant I would guess is Amazon sword. Second plant i’m thinking it could be a red melon sword Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anewbie Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 I don't think the 2nd is red melon; having said that i can' t put my finger on it. I've had red melon in both submersed and emersed form and it is a bit different having said that when the plant is small it is harder to (for me) to determine type.

knee Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 @w0walana you can also look up echinodorus ozelot red or red flame sword Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjoma Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 I think it's an Amazon sword or a rubin sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w0walana Posted March 26, 2023 Author Share Posted March 26, 2023 (edited) red flame sword is one of my top guesses (out all of the red echinodorus lol). I don't have any guesses about the green sword though. Do swords grow shorter in higher lighting or lower lighting? these swords are so small. i appreciate the help Edited March 26, 2023 by w0walana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w0walana Posted March 26, 2023 Author Share Posted March 26, 2023 I forgot to mention that the shop had the kleiner bar sword labeled so it might be that. i do find it weird this wasn't labeled though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anewbie Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Kleiner bar swords are nice; they do require a lot of light - another plant that the small one reminds a bit of is frans stoffels echinodorus. This one is more subtle than rubin and melon in colouring - but again when the plant is small it is harder to identify the colour pattern. I'm nearly 100% sure it is not red flame or ozelot because they tend to be richer green with streaks even when small though i suppose without light it might go pale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
