Amazing!
Posted by Terence J Hulse on 21 Jan 2021Container was very secure and the plants were very healthy. Container was also very packed (as much as they could safely fit for the plant) I have seen virtually no melt!

Great plants
Posted by Chad Anderson on 19 Jan 2021The red root floaters showed up in great condition. They were well packaged and were not damaged even though the box was dented by the carrier. The day after I put them in my aquarium they were already sprouting new growth. Just be sure to quarantine them properly if you don't want snails

Redroot floaters
Posted by Unknown on 11 Nov 2020They are awesome. I have them in three of my tanks. The roots were long and they were very green. I have them with some parrots/cichlids and afraid they were going to be eaten but they have not. hopefully they will flourish and even flower for me.
