Assorted sword plants are native to South America and contribute to a calm and balanced atmosphere in aquariums. They usually grow to a height of 10 – 30cm (4-12 inches) making them ideal as a centrepiece or background plants in larger tanks. They thrive in temperatures ranging from 72°F to 82°F (22°C to 28°C) and require a pH level between 6.5 and 7.5.
