My first crypt!

Arrived on 7/9/24. This is my first crypt, so I can't say much about it other than the leaves and roots arrived nice and green. Since I am still learning about aquarium plants, I decided I better plant them in a pot, so I can shift them around the tank without disturbing roots. I assume they will melt back. One of my shrimp almost immediately swam over to inspect!

Good plant

Came as described. Have ordered this a couple times now Had some nasty slime covered roots both times however it's a really resilient plant and thrive regardless with almost no melt

Good Plants

Plants were in perfect condition on arrival, and have barely melted back after several days.

Amazing

This was my first time ordering from APF and I already feel like a loyal customer. The plants I received were very large and healthy!

Excellent plants!

Beautiful, healthy plants, this is my second time ordering from APF, and in both cases I have been very happy. Plants arrived quickly and in great condition. The prices are great too!

They seem ok

Order 2 for 3. Got a total of 12 stems. Very slight melting, but they did there best. The were shipped with a water logged strip wrapped around the roots. Some were small (~3 inches) but most were closer to ~6 or 7".
