Ozelot Sword

The Ozelot Sword is a robust Echinodorus hybrid whose broad green leaves are speckled with dark red-brown spots, like its namesake cat. It grows into a large, dramatic centerpiece for the background or midground of a bigger tank and asks very little beyond a nutrient-rich substrate. Root tabs keep this heavy root-feeder lush and colorful.
