Lotus Pod

Natural Lotus Pods | Bioactive Botanicals & Invertebrate Hides

​Add an architectural element to your enclosure with our Natural Lotus Pods. These iconic, dried seed heads are more than just a visual statement; they are a multi-functional powerhouse for bioactive setups and invertebrate habitats.

​With their unique "honeycomb" structure, Lotus Pods create a complex network of tunnels and chambers that mimic the natural hollows found on a forest floor.

​Choose Your Size

​We offer these pods in three distinct sizes to suit your specific enclosure needs:

• ​Small: Perfect for nano-enclosures, jumping spider dwellings, or as scattered accents in isopod bins.
• ​Medium: The versatile "standard" size, ideal for most terrarium floor displays and arboreal ledges.
• ​Large: A bold focal piece for larger vivariums, providing ample hiding space for larger species like millipedes or scorpions.

​Key Benefits for Your Inhabitants

• ​Ultimate Isopod Nursery: The deep seed cavities provide perfect, dark "cubby holes" for gravid isopods and mancae (babies) to hide and feel secure.
• ​Surface Area for Biofilms: In humid setups, the porous surface area encourages the growth of beneficial biofilms—a primary food source for your clean-up crew.
• ​Arboreal Feeding Stations: Can be mounted or glued to enclosure walls to act as naturalistic feeding ledges or nesting sites for spiders and mantids.
• ​Natural Tannins: Slowly releases beneficial tannins that contribute to a healthy, bioactive environment.
