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.

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.

Holy Grail Micellar Water
Size: 13.52 Fl Oz
This is my holy grail micellar water! My skin can be sensitive and reactive at times, and this product has never let me down. It has never irritated my eyes or skin. I use it to double cleanse, although sometimes I use only this micellar water followed by a quick splash of water. It does not leave a film and leaves my skin feeling nourished and happy.

but takes quiet a good amount of cotton balls
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It removes makeup alright, but takes quiet a good amount of cotton balls. Haven't try it on waterproof makeup yet, but it does make make skin feels clean and isn't harsh. Edit: Tried it for a couple of days, and here's the verdict: It can remove makeup, but you'll need a good amount of it on a cotton pad, and likely you'll use more than one. It feels nice while it is on the face, though it clean best with light makeup, and it takes me a couple of cotton balls to clean eyeliner and mascara. I needed to use moisturizer after it, because it make my skin feels dry. It doesn't take long, and definitely save more time than washing with soap and water, but it's a little bit of a hassle, too. Oh well, at least it's very convenient.

THE Best facial toner period!!!
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This review is for the 200ml bottle I am one of those few but very fortunate people that isn't allergic to anything, or sensitive to most soaps, cleansers and toners. Unfortunately now that I'm in my fifties my face isn't as fuss free as it once was and soaps and cleansers that were once okay, are now either too harsh for my skin or dry it out. Worse than that are those products that irritate my eyes, especially if they're meant to be used around that area. What gives with these manufacturers whose products are supposed to cleanse your face, but irritate your eyes? Of course sooner or later you're going to get some in your eyes regardless of how careful you are. Which brings me to this amazingly excellent cleanser. A more accurate description of this cleanser would a "cleansing toner" as it's not really a face wash i.e. it doesn't soap or foam up like other facial cleansers. As I'm a guy and don't wear any make up I can't vouch for its efficacy in that department. But I can vouch most enthusiastically for its ability to strip your face clean of excess oil and grime picked up during the day without leaving your face feeling dry or tight. I do use it around both my upper and lower eyelids with zero eye irritation at all. It leaves my face feeling clean and refreshed with only the slightest hint of a clean refreshing smell, so it won't interfere with your perfume or cologne. I use it twice a day as an in between facial cleanser/refresher to eliminate that grimy oily look between my daily showers. Highly recommended for doing an excellent job without irritating or drying out my skin. Try it out yourself as this could be the only skin toner that you'll ever need, and it's reasonably priced too. :)

Holy grail for type 1 rosacea
Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This has saved my face. I have type 1 rosacea and my skin has been pissed off for the last eight months straight. I have tried everything including compounded prescription creams that only made my face flare worse. I deal with a lot of flushing and burning that can be triggered by the slightest bit in temperature rise or just seemingly at random, especially at night. Since using this product my skin has calmed down drastically. It's only been a couple days, but so far I'm thinking this is a holy grail product for me. I also purchased the Glenser because the oil cleanser that I was using had fragrance and alcohol, which can be extremely irritating for rosacea. Since switching to Prequel I can honestly say my skin is so much happier and less reactive. Worth a shot if your a rosy girl like me.
