ok, the new 10g needed some plant material... so, I saw a beautiful looking amazon sword, fairly large... his leaves barely reach the surface he's so tall and full!

Is there anything I need to know about growing this fella?

I finally broke down and bought some liquid ferts. I got tetra-plant brand "flora pride" 0-0-3 ferts.

i have used flora pride. fairly good product like it better than API leaf zone...

the sword would probably like some root tabs in the gravel to help it as it draws most of its nutrients through its roots. alot of you leaves may die off from acclimation shock but not to worry it will soon recover and send you some beauties...
