Echinodorus Ozelot Green

This large-sized aquarium sword plant species features prominent red-brown spots that speckle every leaf. This contrast in the leaves combined with its rather large size makes it a perfect addition to larger planted aquarium tanks.

Like all aquatic sword species, Echinodorus Ozelot Green is easy to keep, fairly hardy and needs a minimum of a nutrient-rich aquarium substrate as this species of aquatic plant are heavy root feeders. Aside from this, Echinodorus species are fairly tolerable of varying water parameters and lighting conditions. While this little aquatic sword grows more compact, it is still a larger aquatic plant in general and should be pruned periodically to ensure smaller aquatic plants are not shaded from the light provided.

Propagation is simple. Separate and replant.
