Dwarf Chain Sword

Dwarf chain sword or pygmy chain sword is one of the easiest carpeting plants. It grows to about 4 inches tall and has a grassy appearance. It will thrive if given medium to high lighting and will fill in pretty fast once it gets established.

Dwarf chain sword will self-propagate by sending out runners all across your aquarium substrate. The new baby plants can be trimmed off and replanted or left to grow out naturally.
