Echinodorus cordifolius 'Tropica Marble Queen' is a variety cultivated by Oriental Aquarium in Singapore. Plants grown in marshy conditions have beautiful marbling which sometimes fades under water. The plant demands a relatively large amount of light, and CO2 addition is recommended to promote growth. It is very suitable for low open aquariums, where the leaves above water have clearer marbling. The leaves also resist drying out.

Echinodorus martii is characterised by its long, light-green leaves with a fluted margin, which are very attractive. It is suitable for the hard water found in many aquariums. A nutritious bottom promotes growth. There is some confusion about the name of this plant, and it has been called E. maior and E. martii.

Echinodorus tenellus is the smallest of all sword plants. The leaves are shorter than 7 cm and about 2 mm wide, linear or sometimes lanceolate with 1-3 veins. In Nature, E. tenellus occupies the banks of large rivers where the emergent plants produce numerous flowers during the dry season. At favourable conditions in the aquarium, E. tenellussoon forms a dense carpet and it is thus very suitable as a foreground plant. In large aquaria (deeper than 40 cm)care should be taken to provide enough light because E.tenellus is rather light demanding. The plant prefers a fine-grained nutrient rich substrate - preferable sand mixed with 25% clay and laterite - and neutral to acid,soft water. E. tenellus is quite variable from individuals with lightly green and fairly short blades and to individuals with longer and darker green or even brownish blades. Also, in the shops one meets the 'false tenellus' which is simply Lilaeopsis brasiliensis.

Echinodorus 'Ozelot' is a hybrid between Echinodorus schlueteri 'Leopard'and Echinodorus barthii created by Barth in Dessauin the former East Germany. It is beautiful withelliptical black spotted red-brownish leaves and a very short petiole. The black spots has, of course, inspired the name 'Ozelot'. In contrast to many other spotted and flecked plants Echinodorus 'Ozelot'maintains the spots regardless of light intensity andother environmental factors. Older leaves, however, tendsto have dark-red spots rather than deep black as in the younger leaves. Echinodorus 'Ozelot' is a sturdyplant and accepts most environmental conditions. If the conditions are sub optimal the plant just grow more slowly and a bit smaller.
