Hi all, I've just purchased an "echinodorus ozelot" (ozelot sword)
The tag says moderate to strong light requirement I run 2.5-3.0 Watt/
gal.
Does anyone have any experiance with this plant ?
It sure is a nice looking plant and a exelent addition to my heavely
planted 90
gal.
If anyone has any helpfull hints to growing this plant I would definitly
appreciate it
Please reply to this forum or to my Email address I will respond a.s.a.p.
but I
have 5-6 other hobbies keeping me ocupied so it may me take a day or two
to get
back to y'all. Pls. respond with any & all info you might have
sincerely & regards ART

I've grown and propagated beautiful red-spot ozelot in tanks from just under
2 wpg to about 3.5 wpg. It grows to the top of the tank under lower light
but the reds are more brilliant under brighter light. At the moment I have
an especially spectacular specimen as the centerpiece of a 75 gal tank under
4 x 55watt compacts. Very easy plant to grow.
