Kleiner Bar Sword (Echinodorus sp. Kleiner Bar)
Kleiner Bar Sword is a hybradized species of the Swordplant. It is believed to be a cross of Echinodorus Barthii and Uruguayensis. Under ideal conditions, Kleiner Bar Sword will produce deep reddish-colored leaves. Otherwise, Kleiner Bar Sword's leaves will sport vibrant green color with accenting reddish stems.
Care & Maintenance for Kleiner Bar Sword
As with other Swordplants, nutrient rich substrate, regular fertilization, and good light will ensure the plant's robust growth. However, Kleiner Bar Sword is highly adaptable and will grow under varied aquarium conditions.
- Minimum Lighting Required: Moderate
- Temperature Range: 68-82°F
- Tank Placement: Background
Kleiner Bar Sword should be planted in the background areas of the aquarium. It can be an ideal focal point in the aquarium. Its relatively large size can also be utilized to "hide" various aquarium equipement such as heaters, filter intakes, and pumps.

Plant is doing came in healthy.
Posted by Kingston Wong on 30 Sep 2022Been about 3+ weeks. I already had a few swords in my tanks and added 2 more from "Modern Aquarium. The Kleiner Bar seems to be the slowest growing of them all. Healthy, but slow growing. Has grown a few extra leaves.

Kleiner Bar Sword
Posted by Sharon M on 7 Dec 2021Great plant, strong roots, nice leaves (one leaf looked like it had been cut, it was pointy instead of rounded - no big deal).

big and beautiful
Posted by TwynnB on 8 Jun 2021Wow! This plant is large with many leaves and a HUGE root system already that I needed to trim back. It even got stuck at FedEx 5 days longer than it should've, and still gorgeous. Very happy.
