 Red Tiger Lotus are an amazing plant that I really just got into not all that long ago. I love the big red leaves and the unique shape of the plant. As with most red plants, with Red Tiger Lotus, you are going to want to make sure that they have substantial nutrients in their substrate. The better the substrate the better the Red Tiger Lotus will grow. I wouldn't advise trying to keep a Red Tiger Lotus without Dirt or some really substantial root fertilizer.

They say to cut it back so it grows better. I have never personally done this, but it isn't a bad idea for how to care for a red tiger lotus. The Red Tiger Lotus is from west Africa and just looks great as a contrast in you planted aquarium tank. You get so much of an interesting plant with such a great red that I really love this plant.

Red Tiger Lotus is totally a top ten favorite plant of mine.

WARNING- The bulb might come away from the plant. It will be ok and you might get a SECOND PLANT from the bulb. Just plant the newly free plant.

NOTE: These plants are soo phat that I hand wrap them in wet paper so that they are delivered perfectly to you.

This plant might lose a leaf or two in shipping as they are so thin, but they grow back quickly. 

*We Do Not Guarantee the bulb will sprout*

The SMALL PLANT will already be sprouted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't do this will all plants, Ludwigia and Red Tiger Lotus mainly...

⸻ Red Lotus from Dustin’s—what a sight to behold, With leaves like flames in crimson and gold.

It rises with grace from the gravel bed,
A crown of color in vibrant red.

In still waters, it starts to sway,
Like underwater fireworks on full display.
Low light or high, it finds its groove,
A plant with presence and serious move.

It’s not just pretty—it purifies too,
Helping keep tanks fresh and clear for your view.
Fish love to hide in its leafy dome,
It turns your tank into a natural home.

So if your tank needs a bold, lush touch,
Red Lotus from Dustin’s? You need it that much. 🌿🐠

Dustin’s is my goto for Red Tiger Lotus. They have all been hardy plants and are doing great in my tanks.

Red tiger lotus

I got this as a "free" plant. It was so tiny, maybe 2 inches high. Stuck it in my betta tank, it's been 3 weeks, and that thing is HUGE, like on steroids.
