Helanthium tenellum 'Red', commonly known as "Dwarf Chain Sword" or "Pygmy Chain Sword," is a popular aquatic plant in the aquarium hobby. 

Helanthium tenellum 'Red' features narrow, grass-like leaves that are typically green with a reddish hue, especially under high light conditions.

Its a small, carpeting plant, usually growing to about 5-10 cm (2-4 inches) in height.

It spreads via runners, creating a dense, carpet-like effect on the substrate of the aquarium.

Requires moderate to high lighting to thrive and develop its characteristic reddish color.

Supplementing with CO2 can promote faster and more vibrant growth but is not strictly necessary.

 Grows best in nutrient-rich substrates. Adding root tabs can be beneficial if the substrate is not nutrient-dense.

Tissue Culture

Tissue culture plants are young aquatic plants that are developed in-vitro in aquatic plant propagation laboratories. This unique cultivation ensures these plants are devoid of undesired snails, algae, and pesticides, making them completely safe for even the most delicate fish and shrimp species.

We offer a diverse range of tissue cultured aquarium plant varieties. Our cultures provide substantial planting portions, and when combined with high-quality fertilizers and CO₂ injection will grow into healthy aquatic plants.

Just lower the root portion of the tissue culture's clump that needs to be planted directly into the soil until it is buried halfway into the aquatic soil.
