Echinodorus Green Tiger is on the newer spectrum of Amazon Sword Plant species. Considered to be on the medium side for Echinodorus, Echinodorus Green Tiger is a suitable sword plant choice for medium planted aquariums. Newer leaves are a bright green that display very unique deep reddish brown tiger stripes color with older leaves displaying vibrant green hues. This Echinodorus species is very reminiscent of Ozelot Green coloration and leaf features but has the growth structure and leaf shape of Grandiflorus.
Echinodorus Green Tiger is easy to grow both submerged and emerged with its emerged form displaying harder, coarse-textured green leaves. Echinodorus easy care makes it a great choice for beginner hobbyists and typically works great in Wabi Kusa setups as well. Like all aquatic sword species, Echinodorus Green Tiger is easy to keep, fairly hardy and needs a minimum of a nutrient-rich aquarium substrate as these species of aquatic plant are heavy root feeders. Aside from this, Echinodorus species are fairly tolerable of varying water parameters and lighting conditions. Propagation is simple. Separate and replant.
