Red Tiger Lotus Aquarium Lily (Nymphaea zenkeri) - Aquarium Bulb Plant

The Red Tiger Lotus, also known as Nymphaea zenkeri, is a beautiful aquarium lily that brings bold color and character to freshwater aquariums. Native to Africa, this aquatic plant is admired for its striking arrow-shaped leaves that range from deep red to green with unique speckled patterns. It can grow up to 20 inches tall, making it ideal as a midground or background plant where it can serve as a stunning focal point. Whether grown as a compact dwarf aquarium lily or allowed to send leaves toward the water’s surface, this tiger lotus aquarium plant adds elegance and natural shelter to your aquascape. While most popular in aquariums, this versatile tiger lotus aquarium plant can also be grown in outdoor ponds, where its floating leaves add a natural and decorative touch.

Benefits

  • Creates a stunning focal point with its vibrant red leaves.
  • Provides shade and shelter for fish and shrimp.
  • Helps reduce algae by competing for nutrients.
  • Easy to grow from a red bulb plant, making it beginner-friendly.

Care Guide

Caring for the Red Tiger Lotus Aquarium Lily is simple with the right conditions, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced aquarists.

Light

Moderate to high lighting will bring out the deep red coloration in the leaves. In low light, the plant may stay more green than red.

Temperature

Keep water temperature between 72-82°F for healthy growth.

CO2

CO2 injection is not required, but adding it can encourage faster and more vibrant growth.

Water Parameters

Best in freshwater aquariums with a pH range of 6.5-7.5 and soft to medium hardness.

Growth Rate

The dwarf aquarium lily grows quickly and may send leaves to the surface if not trimmed. Regular pruning keeps it compact and attractive.

Propagation

New plants grow from the bulb. Simply place the aquarium plant bulb halfway into the substrate and wait for shoots to appear.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Red Tiger Lotus need CO2?

No, Red Tiger Lotus grows beautifully without CO2 injection. It's a heavy root feeder — a quality root tab near the bulb provides all the nutrition needed. It thrives in low to high light conditions.

How do you plant a Red Tiger Lotus bulb?

Place the bulb on top of the substrate or half-bury it — never fully bury it, as this can cause rot. The bulb will send roots down and shoots up naturally. Add a root tab nearby for faster growth.

Will Red Tiger Lotus take over my tank?

It can grow large (12-18 inch leaves) and send lily pads to the surface. Trim surface leaves regularly and prune outer leaves to control size. Keeping it in a pot or trimming runners prevents spreading.

eh
Format: Paperback
IT's not bad at all but they're other "The Simpsons" comic books are way better. I really recommend "Belly Buster" or "Madness" from The Simpsons collection.

"I very nearly singed my bone!"--Melvin Van Horne
Format: Paperback
Another fun-packed issue of Simpsons Comics. This is the 15th issue I've bought and, with only a couple of exceptions, they are all as funny and entertaining as the television show. I've read them all multiple times. This issue is perfect for the Sideshow Mel fan because he is featured in a short that documents how and why he became Sideshow Mel and he is also the hero in another comic. Jimbo Jones fans will like the short about how he became a bully (he wasn't always one). Dr. Hibbert also has a short feature. Here's what this issue has to offer: "Simpson/Sideshow Sibling Smackdown": Cecil Terwilliger and Lisa have something in common--they can't escape from the shadows of their attention-grubbing older brothers. Can they find a rapport even as one is intent on destroying the other? "A Recipe for Disaster"--Marge needs a new dish for the church social pot luck and tries recipes written by "Springfieldian citizens of questionable character." "Homer's Run"--Bart becomes owner of a demanding falcoln ("I have to do everything for him. What a stupid bird") while Homer signs up for early retirement on the Hawaiian Island Garbagio--which looks (and smells) just like it sounds. "Secret Origin of Sideshow Mel"--The background story of how and why Melvin Van Horne became Krusty's sidekick (you won't believe what Mel's occupation was before he replaced Sideshow Bob). "Day of the Nerd"--Lisa finds out the truth about NASA's exploration of Mars. Meanwhile, the other geeks of Springfield compete in feats of nerdome to win the inheritance of the largest collector of TV/movie&comic book memorabilia. Interesting and unique but jumps around a lot. "Bummer Vacation"--Short about Bart's summer (his batting swing looks totally wrong) and then writing a report on it that Mrs. Krabbapal doesn't believe. "Laughter is the Worst Medicine"--Homer competes in a competitive eating contest, "The Gorge in the Gorge." As Krusty says, "Chewing is for losers! Once you swallow, it's the colon's problem." After eating the final hot dog, something goes horribly wrong. Meanwhile Krusty gets a real doctor's degree instead of an honorary one and sick people start lining up at his door. "Down Home Doctorin' Time with Doctor Julius Hibbert"--Short about Dr. Hibbert as a TV doctor forced to change the style of his show to get better ratings. Ends very abruptly. "The Permanent Record Room!"--Principal Skinner shares some stories (school stories, not war stories). (1) "Pranks But No Pranks"--Bart plays a joke on Groundskeeper Willie which has the janitor believing he's a superhero. (2) "And the Beatings Go On"--The origin of Jimbo Jones. No, he wasn't always a bully. (3) "Truant or False"--Lil' Homie gets hooked up with a young miscreant(who would grow up to become a prominent figure in Springfield). Homer thinks he's learned a valuable lesson from the breif time he spent with this rebelious kid, but perhaps it is the rebel who changes his ways. Sidenote: they wouldn't have had Noiseland Arcade if this comic was accurate. Homer's mother is in this comic and she left the family in 1969. "The Many Faces of Bob"--Sideshow Bob is released from prison but is hit by a Duff Beer truck on his way out and has to undergo plastic surgery. Bart and Lisa try to figure out who Bob could be posing as before he gets his revenge on Bart. "Homer vs. The Raccoon I & II"--I'm not sure why this was divided into two parts; it's just an 8-page short. Anyway, Homer tries to capture a raccoon that has been going through his trash.
