The lotus pods look stunning in my aquarium. My shrimp have started using them as hiding spots. They don’t float or sink, just sit naturally in the water. I noticed the water seems clearer after a few weeks, possibly due to the natural compounds.

I added the pods to my terrarium and they look very realistic. The texture adds depth to the scene. My small shrimp seem to enjoy the space under them. I’d recommend them for anyone looking for natural elements.
