Fun Fact: The Brazil Sword (Spathiphyllum tasson) is not a true aquatic plant but rather a terrestrial or bog plant that is sometimes sold for aquariums. It thrives best in humid, emersed conditions and may struggle if fully submerged for extended periods.
Appearance: This plant has broad, deep green leaves that resemble those of other Spathiphyllum species, commonly known as peace lilies. Its elegant foliage adds a lush, tropical look to an aquarium or paludarium.
Habitat: Native to tropical regions, Spathiphyllum species prefer high humidity and are often found in wetlands, making them suitable for terrariums, ripariums, and paludariums rather than fully submerged aquariums.
Aquarium Use: While often sold for aquariums, the Brazil Sword is best used in setups where its roots are submerged but its leaves remain above water. It thrives in paludariums or as an emersed plant in shallow water.
Care: If used in an aquarium, it should be planted with its leaves above the waterline to prevent rot. It requires consistently moist soil and benefits from occasional fertilization. Low to moderate lighting is ideal to prevent leaf burn.
Propagation: Propagates through division, where new plantlets grow from the base of the mother plant. These can be separated and replanted.
Note: Since the Brazil Sword is not a true aquatic plant, it may eventually deteriorate if kept fully submerged. For long-term success, it is best suited for emersed growth in humid environments.
Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) Iβve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
