A beautiful bulb that develops with lovely brown/red leaves. These will reach the surface of your aquarium making them particularly useful for tall aquariums. The leaves can become quite large and offer excellent protection from the light for fish such as discus.

This plant is unlikely to cause many difficulties in the aquarium as it grows in a wide range of water conditions. It can survive in warm water (up to 30 degrees) and is ideal for a discus tank. When placing it in your aquarium, simply place it on the top of your substrate - do not push it into the substrate or it will rot. The Nymphea Lotus Bulb is a hardy aquatic plant with an impressive growth rate and minimal maintenance requirements, making it a great option for an easy cultivation experience.

The good the bad and the good

Received my 2 lotus bulbs , 1 large one and the other a bit smaller, put them in my betta tank, after a good few days they both were showing signs of growth with tiny leaves beginning to show, unfortunately the large bulb also started to show a white fungus growth, so I dipped the bulb in a bleach dip (1-5 parts strength) for 2 minutes, then put it in a freshwater dip and left it there for a day, but the fungus was still growing, again a bleach dip this time for a good 5-6 minutes and after that returned to a freshwater dip and left for 3 days, it killed the fungus, I’ve returned the bulb back into my betta tank with so far 1 new leaf starting to grow, so all good now. 👍

Bulb looked ok on receipt of delivery placed on its side on top of substrate but after two weeks it has no signs of growing. The only thing that is growing is a mold that's covering it.
Asked for advice but still waiting

I purchased two of these, one of them took a little longer to sprout and I thought it might be dead - but it was just a slow to get going, now both seem healthy and are growing fast!

Can't really say much yet, bulb came well packaged. Been in tank a couple of weeks now but only a few small sprouts showing so far.

Started growing a few hours after I added it to my tank. Nearly a month later and the leaves are at about 2 inches. Great fun watching it grow as there's noticeable difference each day. Only reason it's not 5 stars is because It's made the one side of my tank look quite bare as you'll need to make room for its eventual size. Perhaps it's unfair to not give a full 5 stars. But y'know picky planted tank keepers *eye roll* ????

Your plants will be wrapped with recyclable Honey Comb wrap - sounds cool because it is :). It interlocks which means we don't need to use tape either, reducing our impact on the environment.

Not only is delivery fast with DPD Express but it's also green as they offset all the carbon their vehicles produce. Guilt free delivery which we're very proud of...
