Growing Echinodorus Ozelot...

[severn]

i have planted the ozelots fopr about 6 weeks now..
they seem to be producing new laves ok but getting any great height [with
only 1 reaching 4/5 inches...]

how long so they take to establish and what type of height has anyone managed with
these plants..
i bought of the ADA multi bottom and ADA iron tablets which ive planted about an inch down, around the plant..im using excel and have stared dosing the water column this week

thanks

Jon

HI Jon, you dont say if you are using pressuized co2 or not Echinodorus plants take up a lot of nutrients and i think you would see a big difference by adding pressurised co2 i dont know for sure if excel is enough on its own, regards john
