🌿 Green Ozelot Sword (Echinodorus ‘Ozelot Green’) brings bold, dark speckling over vibrant green leaves—an instant texture boost for your scape. Built for a natural aquarium, it thrives the Father Fish way: deep soil base, sand cap, and simple low-tech care—no CO2, no root tabs, no bottled ferts.
Why it’s great for a natural aquarium
- ✅ Striking speckled foliage—marbled green leaves add contrast
- ✅ Root-feeding growth—settles quickly in dirted substrates
- ✅ Low-tech friendly—no CO2 or liquid dosing needed
- ✅ Community-safe—broad leaves offer shade and cover
- ✅ Versatile size—works midground to background as it fills in
Care
- Lighting: low–moderate
- Substrate: rich soil base with a sand cap (recommended)
- Placement: midground to background
- Growth rate: moderate
- Tank size: 10 gallons and up
🌱 Plant the crown at sand level, give it some open space, and let the roots run under the cap. Skip root tabs—your soil does the feeding.
Father Fish tip
“Let plants do the heavy lifting—good dirt, a sand cap, and patience beat bottles every time.”
