This spectacular red aquarium/paludarium lily is a true "centerpiece" plant that can grow to an impressive size and it can also produce beautiful flowers! 

Red Tiger Lotus Aquarium Lily (Nymphaea zenkeri) is a remarkable red bulb plant that is native to Africa. It is known for its triangular leaves and, as its name states, its deep red coloration. It can grow to a very large size of 30+ inches tall and 20+ inches wide under optimal conditions. It will sometimes flower when kept in shallow enough water or emersed conditions, so it is a terrific plant for paludariums as well.

Care for Dwarf Aquarium Lily is very easy. Its bulb base must not be completely buried in the substrate or it will rot. In fact, burying just 1/4 of the bulb in the substrate should be sufficient. Also, this warm water plant will sometimes quickly deteriorate if the temperature is too low. Finally, it will periodically go through dormant periods where it will shed its leaves for a few weeks, but then grow new leaves. With quality care, the Red Tiger Lotus Aquarium Lily will grow at a moderate rate. It propagates through shoots, and once new growth has roots of its own, it can be cut and replanted. Please note that this plant can emit a chemical that is somewhat harmful to other plants that are in very close proximity (i.e. - constantly touching the lily), so it is necessary to give the Red Tiger Lotus Aquarium Lily adequate space. If this is done, it will not harm other plants. Its growth can be controlled by regular pruning, limiting lighting, and/or confining the bulb and root structure to a contained space such as a glass container. Trimming its flowers before they wilt will also inhibit seed production. 

In addition to its attractive appearance, Red Tiger Lotus Aquarium Lily provides a valuable refuge for aquarium animals, especially dwarf shrimp, nano fish, and fry. Red Tiger Lotus Aquarium Lily can easily flourish and grow to become a major centerpiece of the planted aquarium!

Like most plants, Red Tiger Lotus Aquarium Lily has moderate nutrient requirements and will benefit from supplementation such as Seachem Flourish, Flourish Excel, Nitrogen and other plant supplements. 

No aquarium plant distributor/nursery/wholesaler/retailer can or will guarantee their plants to be 100% snail free. We can not guarantee our plants will be snail free.

 

***PLEASE NOTE - This plant can sometimes arrive as a bulb with no leaves attached. This is normal, and in most cases, new leaves will sprout within a few weeks. If your Red Tiger Lily bulb loses its leaves upon arrival, please plant it as usual if the bulb is still firm and healthy. If it does not begin to re-sprout, please contact us and we will honor our live arrival guarantee and replace it or credit you!

No more sunscreen in our hair!
Style: NEUTROGENA SHEER ZINC, Size: 1.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The only kids sunscreen stick I've found that actually glides on. After struggling with too-hard sticks and messy lotions, this is so easy to apply to my wiggling toddler. And the large size makes application to the whole body a breeze. This is perfect to keep in the diaper bag and quickly reapply for the whole family.

Neutrogena Pure & Free Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick - Gentle Protection for Little On
Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I purchased the Neutrogena Pure & Free Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick with Broad Spectrum SPF 50 & Zinc Oxide for both of my grandbabies, and it has been a wonderful addition to our sun protection routine. The sunscreen stick is easy to apply, especially on squirmy little ones, and provides effective broad-spectrum protection. One of the things I love most about this sunscreen is that it's formulated with zinc oxide, which is gentle on their delicate skin. I also appreciate that it's free of fragrances, parabens, and other harsh chemicals, making it suitable for their sensitive skin. The compact size of the sunscreen stick makes it convenient to carry in a diaper bag or purse, ensuring that we always have sun protection on hand when we're out and about. Plus, the stick form makes it easy to apply precisely, avoiding the eyes and mouth. Overall, I highly recommend the Neutrogena Pure & Free Baby Mineral Sunscreen Stick to parents and grandparents looking for a gentle yet effective sunscreen for their little ones. It's become a staple in our outdoor adventures, and I'm sure it will be in yours too.

So much easier to apply
Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 2)
These are small for the price but man oh man does it make it easier! My daughter is allergic to most sunscreens so this is our go to kind however I hate how hard it is to get off of your hands after using the lotion form. This is so much neater and it doesn't get all over me. It also doesn't seem to stain the suits - or is just easier to avoid getting on suits - than the lotion form. It does the same great job of preventing sunburn. Makes reapplication so much better because you don't end up with sand all over you - since you couldn't rinse off the lotion the first time around.
