Now I have to keep them going… I’m trying a dry-start this time and I hope it works out. It’s been 4 days and so far, so good. They’re looking plump and stable.
More great quality from APF!Y order came with more plants than I expected. None have melted in my aquarium and they all are growing in well.
Great quality plants! They have doubled in size in just a few short weeks and have really take off. I keep coming back to this seller because their have the best tissue culture plants!
It was packed really good. And delivery was super quick too!
Am very happy with my purchase. The plant came very healthy appearing and is currently doing great in my tank.
The plants came in great condition and even though they sat around for a week after they arrived, they still are looking great. I just separated them into dozens of small plants and put them in my new 15 gallon cube to dry start them.
this is an interesting and cute plant, definitely on the larger side and probably best for high surface area big aquariums or ponds. I have some in my 10 gals right now, but planning on a patio "pond" to house the clippings that I will surely be thinning soon.
I ordered three plants from here and was a little nervous because I've ordered plants online before from other places and those ones arrived in poor condition. However, these plants (along with the variegated type and the marsilea hirsuta I ordered) all arrived neatly packaged, clean, and fresh. The delivery itself was very prompt. And I'm very excited because all three plants have new little leaves already! Excellent service, any time I need more aquarium plants I'll be ordering from here again!
I always liked Hygrophilias, I have this one in my 5gal planted tant.
I originally purchased these Cabomba Piauhyensis (Purple Cabomba) without researching that they needed a substrate. However, I simply added them to the water as floating plants anyway. After over three weeks they continue to survive. They likely will die but maybe not---they are spreading out like Hornwort. In all-day indirect light they have brightened, with some very tiny parts matching aspect of the vibrant photos, but most of them are more of a muted red. My betta have started picking at them and seem to enjoy them as food. I can tell that some are becoming compromised by being nibbled on, but others are opening up and taking up space and seem to be flourishing. The uploaded photograph i a backlighted with some distracting color in the background but I purposely did not manipulate the image
This is a nice plant to add variety to your aqua space and they seem fairly hardy (but more delicate than the all green variety). I keep bettas and I do not keep a substrate. I mix these plant with the all green version and an assortment of plants. One effect that they have is cause the bettas to seem less prominent and create a bit of camouflage when they are among the plants because the purple and it dark values connect to the bettas colors and patterns. I like this effect. However, other keepers might not. All that said, I have seen other reviews and their images. One person shows their appearance planted in a row in the substrate and I agree that they look leggy. They might look better as a bunch in the substrate unless they are fast growers. Also, mine have been in a window in all-day indirect like and the purple color is going in two directions in different vessels. It is either turning very dark even in a lot of light or they are turning toward a red color that is a bit anemic looking, but okay looking. In short, they work fine for my purpose of adding variety to my floating plants but be aware that their color is unstable and their stems' straight form is not graceful in the water.

All arrived healthy and are doing well. Glad I made this purchase
Nice to finally be able to buy a native to North America aquatic floating plant! I love frogbit so I can’t wait to see what this does! I will say the roots fell off during shipping but new roots are already forming so we should be good to go.
Scoured the internet trying to source this foam. Idk where you guys get it from, but I caved and bought it lol
I sell aquarium plants on the side. It’s nice to have the foam to protect stems from the weight.
I always enjoy a nice variegated plant and this one was a great selection. The bare root option split into 6 sections and allowed for placement in the tank and to create a pot. Great color and size.
Seen how big these can get out of water and wanted to give them a try. After opening the bag the plant split into multiple sections and allowed me to give a piece to my daughter for propagation, make two healthy sized pots, and place some around the tank. Looks great.
Plant arrived in great shape displaying really nice color
mine came in very healthy and are already converting to submerged growth. can't wait to see how they end up.
