Please be aware that our Live Arrival Guarantee is subject to certain conditions. Specifically, the guarantee will not be applicable in cases where the package is marked as 'invalid address', 'undeliverable' or is 'returned to sender.' This includes situations such as a vacant delivery address, a missing apartment number, or any other issues that prevent the postal service from delivering your package.
It is crucial to provide accurate and complete shipping information to ensure the successful delivery of your order and the applicability of the Live Arrival Guarantee.
Please keep in mind that Live Arrival Guarantee only guarantees that live stocks will be alive upon arrival. We cannot guarantee that you will continue to have success with them. Many factors, including the aquarium environment, water quality, nutrient, temperature, lighting, filter, and CO2 system, can contribute to the failure to grow live plants and live animals.
WHAT WE CAN'T GUARANTEE
Even though our plants are very clean, but we can't guarantee they will be 100% pest-free because we cannot be responsible for your aquarium. Please use it at your own risk. We recommended all customers rinse the plants with clean water and quarantine them before use.
However, plants in tissue culture will be 100% free from pests, algae and never have been contacting with any aquarium.
- Due to the nature of the product. We don't guarantee our plants will be pests free. ( snails, algae, hitchhikers )
- We don't guarantee our plants will be free of pesticides. We use homemade, organic pesticides in our greenhouse to control pests. We do not use pesticides that contain copper. Copper is toxic to invertebrates such as aquatic snails, crabs, shrimps, etc
- We don't guarantee your aquarium success or are responsible for your aquarium inhabitant including but not limited to fish, shrimp, snail, turtle, etc. So please quarantine all plants when use!
- Unless specific, we don't guarantee aquatic plants will be grow emerged or submerge.
Please review your state's regulations on restricted plants, as we are committed to not shipping plants that are restricted in your area. Do not release any plants into the wild or waterways, as this can harm local ecosystems by introducing invasive species.
Your cooperation in protecting the environment is appreciated. For continuously updated information, refer to the USDA State Noxious Weed list here.
Thank you for your responsible commitment to environmental preservation.

Upon arrival, the plant looked great but once I took it out of the bag, the leaves were limp and 4 fell off. Only 2 leaves stayed attached. I was able to salvage the rhizome and remaining leaves but I'm worried about if it'll thrive. It seems very fragile. I think it may have just been stressed from the shipping. I hope it'll grow strong in my tank.

Usually I just get anacharis for my turtles through APF, but decided to add some more foliage to my aquarium so I got more anubias. They arrived wonderfully packaged and healthy. I expected nothing less from APF.

I purchased these Anubias Nana (and some Java Moss) as my first purchase through APF and was extremely pleased. APF shipped quickly and both the anubias and java moss were well packaged and in amazing condition when they arrived. Super healthy!
The plants have settled into the tank wonderfully and are flourishing. I recommend APF. They are quickly becoming my go to supplier for aquarium plants!

Why do the directios say no snails
For farm-raised plants, we cannot guarantee they will be free of pests. If you're concerned about snails, we recommend choosing the tissue culture version instead.
