Plants are pest free! Some plants we sell are grown emersed which means out of water when they are stuck in aquariums, they may experience some melting (Leaves Dying) this does not mean they are dead as typically the plants will bounce back.
Green Tiger Lotus Lily (Nymphaea) is a beautiful and unique freshwater aquarium plant known for its vibrant green leaves, distinctive darker tiger-like markings, and attractive lily-pad growth. This eye-catching bulb plant is an excellent choice for adding natural texture, height, and visual interest to planted aquariums, community tanks, shrimp tanks, and aquascapes.
The Green Tiger Lotus is especially popular among aquarists because of its unique patterned foliage. Its broad green leaves can display dark spots, mottling, and contrasting patterns that give the plant its characteristic "Tiger Lotus" appearance.
Green Tiger Lotus works particularly well as a midground or background aquarium plant, depending on the size of the aquarium and how it is maintained. Its broad leaves create a strong focal point and provide beautiful contrast against fine-leaved stem plants, carpeting plants, driftwood, and aquarium rocks.
The plant grows from a bulb, which stores nutrients and energy for new growth. When planting the bulb, position it partially into the aquarium substrate while leaving part of the bulb exposed. Avoid completely burying the bulb, as this can increase the risk of rot.
With suitable lighting and nutrients, Green Tiger Lotus can produce attractive submerged foliage. If allowed to reach the surface, it may produce floating lily-pad leaves and can eventually flower above the water.
Plant Type: Bulb / tuber aquarium plant
Difficulty: Easy to moderate
Growth Rate: Moderate to fast
Lighting: Low to moderate; stronger lighting can encourage more compact growth and coloration
CO₂: Not required, but beneficial
Placement: Midground / background
Ideal For: Planted tanks, community aquariums, shrimp tanks, aquascapes
Substrate: Nutrient-rich substrate recommended
Propagation: Bulb growth / daughter plants
Green Tiger Lotus benefits from a nutrient-rich substrate or aquarium root fertilizer to support its strong root system and vigorous leaf production. Remove older or damaged leaves at the base of the plant as needed.
If you want to maintain primarily submerged foliage, trim or remove leaves that reach the surface. This can help prevent the plant from shading other aquarium plants while encouraging attractive underwater growth.
Green Tiger Lotus is an excellent choice for aquarists looking for a unique, colorful, and relatively easy-care aquarium bulb plant. Its broad green leaves and distinctive dark markings add natural texture and contrast to planted aquariums.
Its larger foliage also provides additional cover and structure for fish and shrimp, making it a great addition to natural-looking freshwater aquariums.
Whether you're creating a planted community aquarium, shrimp tank, natural aquascape, or colorful freshwater aquarium, Green Tiger Lotus can add beautiful patterned foliage and become a stunning focal point in your aquascape.
