Live plants by mail
Posted by Karen Strelecki on 30 Jan 2020I was really nervous about sending anything live by mail and winter here is snow& wind. But, I reviewed modern aquariums and they exceeded my expectations. They went above and beyond the plants were healthy and warm when they arrived. Support helped me track my plants so they wouldn't be left on a snowy porch all day. These Folks are Amazing. I'd recommend them to everyone The quality is top notch too. I've found a better selection and price than my local shop's
