    Amazon swords will grow under low to medium lights, but not as fast and they won’t turn that bright green color you’re probably expecting. Instead, they’ll turn a deep green and you’ll likely struggle to get any good growth

    Amazon swords have insane root structures, so you need substrate. But you can grow amazon swords in a pot if you want a bare bottom tank, which is the closest you’re going to get. They’ll typically start throwing off babies for you much faster this way, but they won’t get nearly as large.
