The Amazon Sword plant (Echinodorus amazonicus) is quite popular in the aquarium hobby because of its impressive size, its simple yet majestic beauty, and its minimal care requirements. This plant can grow up to 20 inches in height with the proper lighting and water quality. The formation of its stems and leaves makes it a member of the Rosette plants, which are known for their extremely short stem axes and the way their leaves grow upward from the base of the plant.
The plant is named for its sword-shaped leaves, which vary in color from pale to dark green. The leaves can become quite large, making this a perfect background plant for a large aquarium or a beautiful centerpiece in a small aquarium.
This plant ships as a bare root clump with 5 to 10 leaves. This plant does not need special or high intensity lighting, and can be kept in any freshwater aquarium. As with all of our plants, our Amazon Swords are kept in water in a dedicated tank rather than plastic packaging, which means your plant will arrive much healthier.

Great product. So cute
So pleased. Helped my 11 week puppy sleep in his bed without crying. Would like smaller ones for Yorkies.

Its amazing
My dog calms down when I put her plush toy near her; when I hear the sound of its heartbeat, I know she's very still.

Dogs can open zipper and pull out all the stuffing easily
Not great for a chewer. My 15 week puppy unzipped it and pulled all of the stuffing out. The stuffing is just loose once you unzip it, there isnt a cloth pocket for the battery pack. She also ate the rectangle hand hold part of the zipper. Really sad this didn't work out. I do feel like it helped her settle a little but just wasn't safe for her.
Other than that, it appeared as pictured and worked properly. Also worth noting, the heart beat is LOUD when you put batteries in. I don't know if it calms over time but it was kind of intense.

Zipper is a problem
The first set we received the zipper separated. They were quickly replaced. The zipper tab is very large and our puppy is able to pull it down and pull out all the stuffing. Otherwise it worked to help comfort her until she found the zipper.
