Important Notes
Live aquarium plants naturally vary in size, shape, and appearance at the time of shipment. Growth results depend on aquarium conditions, lighting, nutrients, and planting technique. Images are for reference only and may not represent the exact plant received.
We carefully inspect and prepare all plants before shipment and ensure they are pest-free at the time of packing. However, because live aquarium plants are natural products, occasional hitchhikers such as bladder snails or other microorganisms may appear after transit or acclimation, which is beyond our control.
