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!

A Great Resource for Pastors
Format: Hardcover
While I have appreciated resources like this in the past, I will admit that I was not expecting to be as impressed as I was. This volume is significant in size (over 1300 pages of content) and the depth of scholarship in the passages I consulted thus far has been surprising and refreshing for an expositor’s type of commentary. While this is not a technical commentary by design, the authors are clearly in command of their field and bring the impact of their technical knowledge to bear on the way that they discuss the topics at hand. For instance, Jay Sklar, whose work I have deeply appreciated in his more technical work - including other commentaries on Leviticus - is the author of the Exodus section. His discussion of the ransom idea introduced in Exodus 21 is clearly influenced by the deep theological and textual work he has done elsewhere, yet the prose is imminently accessible and readable to the lay reader. So too does Christine Palmer present the Leviticus chapter. The treatment of Leviticus 16-17 is masterful and quite clear - with the sole exception that the distinction and connection between atonement as forgiveness and as cleansing could be more pronounced rather than assumed. Finally, the biblical-theological sensitivity of Iain Duguid’s Genesis chapter stands out with his treatment of Genesis 2:15 and the nuance of the Hebrew words ‘abad and shamar which have priestly connotations of worshipful obedience is very important and well done. Without being overly technical Duguid presents the reader with this important nuance to the human purpose in the garden and beyond. I am very pleased with this commentary’s content and look forward to other volumes as well. I highly recommend this as a helpful expositor’s commentary for pastors and for those interested lay readers who want to get another layer deeper in their Bible reading and development of biblical-theological sensitivities.

The first shall be last, literally, here
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
It's funny that this is the last book to complete the set, but it's also the first volume. This Pentateuch set offers a great commentary set for those looking for something more than a study Bible, but something less than a full, highly technical, original language, word-by-word study. This review will be a higher-level one rather than a review per volume. Each book of the Bible has its own author, but the layout is the same, with an overview of the book, a section outline, then a section with commentary. The typeface of this is perfect. It's big enough to be easily read and spaced out to not get lost per line. The footnotes are exactly where they need to be, at the bottom of the page but not so overencumbered that you get lost in the footnotes rather than in the main text. The books from page 1 to the last page sit open perfectly without ruining the binding or spine. There's no need to grab two other commentaries just to read and take notes from. That's impressive for these volumes in and of themselves! The division for each combination of books makes sense and also helps if you're studying genre (like 1 & 2 Timothy with Titus, or the Pentateuch). Editors Iain M. Duguid, James M. Hamilton Jr., and Jay Sklar sometimes take over a commentary section but they've picked from some good authors. Their purpose of what they're looking for in the authors are stated in each book. Being broadly Reformed and conservative while being globally minded and not overly exhaustive again points to the well-ordered nature of this set. The Hebrew is transliterated, which again points to this set being inclusive to a wider audience to approach it while still being helpful and a great source of teaching. For the price point, I think purchasing this is useful, especially as a family used commentary set from teens on up.

Review of Crossway’s ESV Expository Commentary: Genesis–Numbers The Final Volume in a Landmark 12-Book Set Crossway’s release of the ESV Expository Commentary: Genesis–Numbers marks the long-awaited completion of their 12-volume expository commentary set ,a project that has served pastors, teachers, and lay readers with a rare blend of theological depth and pastoral warmth. This final installment offers rich insight into the foundational books of Scripture, bringing the story of God's redemptive plan into sharp focus right from the beginning. Theological Clarity Meets Pastoral Sensitivity Covering Genesis through Numbers, this volume tackles some of the Bible's most theologically significant and narratively complex material including creation, covenant, the patriarchs, the Exodus, and the wilderness wanderings. The contributors succeed in making ancient texts accessible, relevant, and worshipful without sacrificing exegetical rigor. Each passage is explained in context, showing how the Law and the beginnings of Israel's story point forward to Christ. Format and Usefulness True to the style of the series, this commentary is structured passage-by-passage, making it perfect for sermon preparation, Bible teaching, or devotional study. The tone is neither academic nor overly simplified—it’s pastoral, clear, and rooted in the authority of Scripture. The layout also includes helpful section summaries, theological insights, and practical application points. As always, all Scripture quotations are from the ESV, helping readers stay immersed in one translation. Series Finale Done Right As the first volume in biblical order but the last in publication, Genesis–Numbers fittingly brings the entire ESV Expository Commentary project full circle. It is a fitting capstone to a series that has been praised for its faithful interpretation, readability, and usefulness across denominations. Whether you're just beginning to explore the Bible or you're a seasoned preacher, this commentary and the series as a whole offers a trustworthy companion for growing deeper in God’s Word. Crossway has given the church a gift that will serve this generation and the next.

Nicely made and easy to read
Format: Hardcover
This arrived well packaged, but despite this, the two top corners of the book were somewhat smashed and there was more significant damage at the bottom of the spine where it was smashed. There is also some damage on the spine itself at about the level where Crossway is printed. The book appears well made and the paper is a good quality and thick. The print is of a nice size. One will most likely never access all the information enclosed in this commentary. In addition, one will most likely not agree with everything written, which should be expected of all commentaries. Commentaries are simply that and not authoritative. One hopes that by reading they might learn something new or be prompted to look more closely at a subject or issue. Let's look at Leviticus 11, for example, where the dietary guidelines are given to the Israelites. In the comments regarding pigs being forbidden, it is noted that the Philistines raised pigs for food. Knowing that, one can come to a conclusion that this may be why they were forbidden, so as to make a difference, or distinction, between the two peoples and not necessarily that pigs were bad to eat. In addition, throughout the commentary the reader is taken not just to other Old Testament passages, but where applicable the New Testament is referenced. Again using Leviticus 11, at the end of the chapter the commentary brings up the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15 when they issued the four requirements for Gentiles. It is noted that, "The Jerusalem Council agreed on four nonnegotiables to bring Jewish and Gentile believers to the same table, drawn in large measure from Leviticus's laws on holy living for the resident alien."

The Final Volume of An Excellent Commentary Series Does Not Disappoint
Format: Hardcover
After 7 years, Crossway has completed their ESV Expository Commentary set. Ironically, Vol. 1, was the last of the twelve volumes to be completed. It fully lives up to the standard the other eleven set. Like the other volumes, it focuses on a passage by passage commentary of each book, followed by a ‘Response’ section that is usually some form of practical application of belief or behavior. For example, in my copy, the ribbon marker was already in Exodus 17:1-7’s ‘Response’ page, and it discussed the question of ‘Why Does God Test His People?’. Jay Sklar’s response includes this wisdom: ‘testing not only gives us an opportunity to show faithfulness; it also helps us to to become more faithful.’ (pg. 578). While I have not yet read the whole thing, Crossway seems to have balanced some well-known scholars with other lesser known ones. Genesis in this volume is covered by Iain Duguid, noted OT scholar currently teaching at Westminster Seminary. Exodus is examined by Covenant Seminary Professor of Old Testament, Jay Sklar, who is a well-known expert on all five books of the Pentateuch. I had not heard of Christine Palmer (Leviticus) or Ronald Bergey (Numbers) before, but Crossway has earned my trust, and I presume their contributions will live up to the standards of others in this series. The commentary is pretty beefy, and the hardcover binding (if my previous volumes are any indication) will need to be handled with care - especially if you are like me, and sometimes try to photocopy pages so you don’t have to carry the whole commentary to a coffee shop or library! All in all, if you are a pastor, Bible student, or lead a Bible study, this series, and this volume, will be a benefit to you.
