The amazon swords is a large plant for an aquarium of 10 gallons, so you do not have problems with amazon swords must control the volume with frequent pruning.

Your aquarium has poor lighting, but you could try valisneria (very invasive plant), Microsorum pteropus, Bacopa caroliniana, Hygrophila polysperma "Rosanervig" , Hygrophila polysperma,Ludwigia repens ..... these plants grow in a medium-intensity light and are resistant to water currents.


Filters that produce a greater loss of CO2 which will break the surface of water as a filter cascades.
