Healthy plants happy shrimp, and fish
This plant arrived healthy, vibrant, and easy to place in my aquarium. It has been growing well and adds a beautiful natural look to the tank. My fish and red shrimp absolutely love it and spend a lot of time around it. Very happy with this purchase and would definitely order again.

Don't do it.
I was really hoping to start growing grass in my aquarium. Looks like I won't be starting with this grass. I didn't even know what this was because it doesn't even look like baby dwarf tears. It looks like something babies throw up and this is what they are selling. I tried rinsing them and it just turned into a spinach substance. Save yourself the trouble and order from a LEGIT seller that wont sell you stuff like this. Unacceptable.

Quick delivery and good quality
The tissue cultures arrived fairly quick and in good condition. Will buy from here again. For comparison, I ordered another tissue culture from a different seller on the exact same day and it it still has not arrived, whilst these arrived already 2 days ago.

Arrived beautifully
I ordered 5 different live plants for my 50 gal aquarium. They arrived nice and green and beautiful. I was worried because I live in Minnesota and it had been 0 degrees. The delivery process must keep them at a decent temperature. I placed them all in the gravel with a long tweezer and then added special fertilizer tabs under their planting areas. Iโll remove the 2 tall fake ones once the live ones grow taller. Hintโฆuse small bobbers on fake plants to keep them upright LOL.

Shipped perfectly but didnโt last long once planted
Arrived in good quality but died nearly instantly in the tank even though I followed all planting instructions and have a strong light. Such a bummer as I was so excited for this to eventually cover much of my small 5 gallon tank.

Not as advertised
Update: this was added to Fluval substrate and was used in other locations and this batch was the ONLY batch that got Millipedes. This was not as advertised for sure. The plants came in a tiny clump not even remotely close to a full cup and just thrown into a larger box. The hair looked pretty dead and was covered in jell but it made it a clump of mess with no root or stems. Here is a Pic of the clump and it is a far difference from the sales pics. I have small hands as well.

Having said that it does look great in my aquarium
Very small amount recieved. Having said that it does look great in my aquarium. But probably needed 10 or so more.
