Echinodorus martii (maior) is a bit
overlooked among plant aquarists. The plant has changed name a couple of
times but the current valid name is now E. martii. Echinodorus
martii (maior) has large light-green transparent leaves with bright ribs
and the leaf rim is beautifully undulating. The plant is quite sensitive to
iron deficiency, like most other Echinodorus species, and iron
deficiency causes almost white transparent leaves. A good nutrient rich
substrate besides CO enrichment and
high light enhances the growth of Echinodorus martii (maior)
significantly. Otherwise, the plant does not require any special attention.
