TheSwissAquarist Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Swords tend to feed out of the gravel, so definitely bury them and maybe complement them with Easy Root Tabs if you want to give them that extra boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiquitaemia Posted October 23, 2023 Author Share Posted October 23, 2023 Swiss aquarist have you ever seen green roots on a Amazon sward? I have been using aquariam coop easy green but don't think what that meant...or it just a confused stem? Not showing up real well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
