    Lotus Pod XXL – Tannin-Rich Blackwater Decoration

    A stunning natural pod for blackwater biotopes and natural aquascapes.

    The Lotus XXL is an oversized lotus seed pod that makes a bold, natural statement in your aquarium. With its striking shape and multiple cavities, it not only offers shelter and grazing spots for fish and shrimp, but also slowly releases valuable tannins into the water—perfect for creating a blackwater biotope.

    Tannins have proven benefits: they lower pH, reduce harmful bacteria, and help decrease stress in fish. The Lotus XXL mimics the natural habitat of many tropical species, making it both functional and decorative.

    Dimensions: 9-12cm
    Contents: 1 piece
    Use: Ideal for freshwater aquariums, especially blackwater setups

    Key Benefits

    • Rich in tannins – lowers pH and inhibits bacteria

    • Helps reduce fish stress in captivity

    • Natural hiding and foraging zones for shrimp and small fish

    • Stunning natural look for blackwater and biotope aquariums

    • 100% safe and chemical-free

    How to Use

    Rinse before use. To reduce floating, soak the Lotus XXL pod under a heavy object for 1–2 days. Over time, it will begin to sink and gradually release tannins into the water.

    Great to combine with Catappa leaves or Cholla wood for a complete natural setup.

    Fun fact: The Lotus XXL comes from the seed head of the Nelumbo nucifera. Its beneficial effects are similar to those of Catappa leaves—nature’s way of supporting your aquarium’s health.
