Description

The Nymphaea Zenkeri Red , commonly known as the Red Tiger Lotus, is a stunning tropical waterlily that has become a favorite in the aquarium industry. Native to the waterways of East Africa, this aquatic plant is celebrated for its bold, heart-shaped leaves with a rich reddish-purple tint, making it a show-stopping centerpiece for any aquascape.

Key Features

  • Striking Appearance: Features vibrant reddish-purple leaves with unique tiger-like markings, adding a dramatic and exotic flair to your aquarium.

  • Fast Growth: Red Tiger Lotus grows rapidly under optimal conditions, providing lush foliage and helping create a natural habitat for aquatic life.

  • Versatile Plant: Can be used as a foreground, midground, or background plant depending on trimming preferences. It also produces floating leaves and flowers if left untrimmed.

    • Optimal Conditions

      • Lighting: Thrives in moderate to high lighting, which enhances the vivid coloration and growth of its leaves.

      • Substrate: Prefers nutrient-rich substrates, such as aquarium soil, to support healthy root development.

      • Water Parameters: Best suited for tropical freshwater aquariums with a temperature range of 72°F to 82°F (22°C to 28°C) and a pH of 6.0 to 7.5.

        • Aquarium Benefits

          • Aesthetic Appeal: Creates a natural, lush look with its vibrant leaves that contrast beautifully against green plants and clear water.

          • Shelter and Shade: Offers cover for fish, shrimp, and other aquatic inhabitants, promoting a stress-free environment.

          • Oxygenation: Contributes to oxygen production, improving the overall health of your tank.

            • Care and Maintenance

              • Easy to Maintain: Suitable for beginner and experienced aquarists alike. Regular trimming of floating leaves helps control the plant’s size and encourages submerged growth.

              • Propagation: Propagates easily through bulb division or runners, making it simple to expand your aquarium planting.

                • Conclusion

                  The Nymphaea Zenkeri Red (Red Tiger Lotus) is the perfect choice for aquarists looking to elevate their tank s visual appeal with a tropical waterlily that combines beauty and functionality.
