Overview

The Echinodorus ‘Ozelot Red’ is a captivating hybrid Swordplant, renowned for its elliptical, deep red to reddish-brown leaves adorned with distinctive dark, almost black, spots. These striking markings are most pronounced on younger leaves and are retained even under moderate lighting, providing consistent visual interest.

It’s highly adaptable to various water conditions and compatible with most community fish and invertebrates. This hardy sword plant requires minimal intervention to thrive, making it an excellent choice for a healthy aquarium.

Tank Essentials

A minimum tank size of 100 litres is recommended to accommodate its potential growth of up to 50 cm. Optimal water parameters include a pH range of 6.0–7.5 and temperatures between 22–28°C. Moderate to high lighting will enhance its vibrant red coloration and distinctive spotting, though it tolerates lower light levels.

Diet

As a heavy root feeder, the Echinodorus ‘Ozelot Red’ thrives in a nutrient-rich substrate. Supplementation with root tabs is highly beneficial, promoting vigorous growth and maintaining its intense colours. Occasional liquid fertilisers can also support overall plant health.
