Lotus pods (x3)

Lotus Pods (pack of 3) are natural elements derived from the lotus plant, featuring a curved design and a sturdy texture. Recognizable by their unique geometric alveoli, they add an authentic and functional touch to bioactive setups while promoting the well-being of wildlife.

They allow you to:

• Provide exploration and resting areas for microfauna (the deep cavities form exceptional shelters and hiding spots for isopods and springtails)

• Serve as a support for biofilm development and beneficial microorganisms, turning the pod into a true natural feeding station

• Structure the decor with a realistic “tropical” or “natural forest” look, providing a strong and very aesthetic visual impact on the ground

Advantages of La Swamp Lotus Pods:

• 100% natural, chemical-free, selected for their superb structure

• Ideal for tropical terrariums, bioactive setups, paludariums, and freshwater aquariums (highly appreciated by shrimp and small bottom-dwelling fish)

• Decompose slowly, releasing beneficial tannins and nourishing microfauna over time

Recommended use:

• In terrariums: place directly on the substrate or half-buried in leaf litter to create humid microhabitats.

• In aquariums: soak or boil for a few minutes to promote immersion (as they easily trap air in their cavities) and limit the initial release of tannins.

Lifespan:

Lotus pods decompose slowly, providing durable support to microfauna for several months thanks to their rigid and fibrous structure.
