Radican Marble Queen Sword
The Radican Marble Queen is a sword plant grown for its broad leaves splashed with creamy white marbling over green, brightening the mid to background. It’s a large, hungry rosette that will happily grow emersed and even flower, so root tabs and space help it reach full potential. A bold, variegated centerpiece for medium and large aquariums.
Care level: Easy-Moderate · Placement: Midground/Background · Lighting: Medium · CO2: Beneficial · Growth rate: Moderate · Propagation: plantlets (adventitious shoots)

When it ships
Most non-quarantined stock goes out the week you order. If we do not already have the animal in-house we source it first — allow up to two weeks for it to reach us. Live animals leave Monday and Tuesday, and Early AM Overnight is the only service that carries a live arrival guarantee.
The live guarantee
Shipped Early AM Overnight: a 1-hour DOA window from confirmed delivery, and nothing beyond it. Next Day Air and 2-Day carry no live arrival guarantee, and neither does USPS Priority. Local pickup or local delivery: 24 hours, if you bring a water sample from your aquarium and we test it before the animal goes home. Maintenance clients: 60 days when we service the aquarium at least twice a month, 28 days on a monthly plan.
