Category: Aquarium Plants

Helanthium bolivianum  ‘Quadricostatus’ from South America has characteristic light-green leaves 10-15 cm long which form a good contrast to the darker aquarium plants. It is most beautiful when planted in groups, each roset becoming 15-20 cm wide. In good conditions it produces runners which spread over the bottom. Very light leaves are a sign of a shortage of micro-nutrients. There is some confusion about the name of this plant, and it has been sold as Echinodorus bolivianus var. magdalenensis. 

Previously known as Echinodorus 'Quadricostatus'.

Eli ★★★★★

The light-green leaves really pop against the darker plants in my tank, just as described. They've grown into a nice low cluster about 12 cm tall within a few weeks, and the contrast is exactly what I was hoping for.

Victoria U. ★★★★★

Planted these in the midground and the 10-15 cm leaves create a lovely contrast with my darker plants, just as described. Arrived healthy and rooted quickly with no melting. Exactly what I needed to fill that spot.

Owen ★★★★★

Those light-green leaves really pop against my darker background plants, and they’ve settled in nicely after a couple weeks. It’s exactly the 10-15 cm height I wanted for the midground, adding a soft, natural contrast without taking over the tank.
