Came very fast from quite a distance(three days all the way across the country) and the plants look amazing as always. I’ve never had any issues with APF. The plants are in the back, sorry I don’t have the best picture.

I bought Luwigia Atlantis together with a host of other plants it was shipped on time and arrived in perfect condition I have a high tech tank and dose PPS Pro with CO2 put this plant between some driftwood roots less than 200 PAR and in two weeks it transitioned to submerged the leaves got bigger and the growth is incredible it is literally growing everyday ! It’s green ant the moment but I hope once I move it to higher light it should change color Aquarium plant factory is the best !
B
Came in looking great and healthy. I’m very happy with these. The stems are very curly for some reason, it may be the plant but I don’t think so based on the stock photos. Either way they came in great and rooted quickly for me.
