Echinodorus Tenellus - 3 Chains

Echinodorus tenellus, commonly known as Narrow Leaf Chain Sword, is one of the smallest and most delicate members of the Echinodorus family — a charming, grass-like foreground plant that produces clusters of slender, bright green leaves and spreads readily via runners to form a lush, natural-looking carpet across the aquarium floor. This listing offers a generous bundle of 3 established chains, giving you an instant head start on creating a dense, spreading foreground display. Perfect for nano tanks and larger aquascapes alike, it brings a fresh, meadow-like quality to any planted setup.

Propagation: Spreads readily via horizontal runners, producing daughter plants that can be separated once established.
