The classification of this plant, along with almost all other 'Echinodorus' grown in the aquarium hobby, has recently been revised - these plants now belong to the new 'Aquarius' genus.

Aquarius grisebachii 'Parviflorus Tropica', commonly known as Echinodorus Parviflorus Tropica, is a miniature sword plant that is perfect for smaller aquariums. With its small size and low growth habit, it only reaches a height of about 10cm, making it an excellent choice for nano aquariums or foreground plantings.

The leaves of Echinodorus Parviflorus Tropica are dark green and have a crinkled texture, which adds to the plant's unique appearance. Despite its small size, this plant has sturdy leaves that can withstand a range of water conditions, making it an ideal choice for beginner aquarists.

This Aquarius cultivar grows best in a nutrient-rich substrate and with a moderate light level. When provided with these conditions, Echinodorus Parviflorus Tropica will flourish and produce new leaves regularly. It is also tolerant of a wide range of water parameters, including pH, temperature, and hardness.

The Tropica Dwarf Sword Plant is an excellent choice for aquarists who want a small, easy-to-care-for plant with a unique appearance. Its low growth habit and compact size make it perfect for aquascaping smaller aquariums, and its hardiness makes it a great choice for beginner aquarists.
