The sword radicans has grown beautifully in my 120-liter tank. The leaves are long and shiny, adding a lot of visual appeal. I didn’t have to adjust lighting much, and it’s been thriving for over three months.

It arrived quickly and looks exactly as described. I planted it in a medium-light setup and it’s spreading well. A bit of trimming was needed after two weeks, but overall very satisfied.
