Product Description

Product Description

You will get plants with a total of at least 30 leaves combined (see 2nd picture to compare size to a quarter). Red Root Floaters remove toxic chemicals (e.g. ammonia, heavy metals, etc.) from your water, provide natural cover for shrimp and fish, and look absolutely stunning in an aquarium.

If you select the feeding ring option, you will also get one of our invisible 2.5" feeding rings that is auto-leveling and fully customizable to any size using standard 3/16" airline tubing (see images and video).

How and Where We Grow Our Plants

All plants are grown in our in-house aquatic nursery in California, which operates in a snail and duckweed free environment (though we do carry "giant duckweed," which is much larger than traditional duckweed, and we utilize beneficial freshwater scuds). All established aquatic environments, including ours, contain microfauna such as seed shrimp, limpets, and infusoria. A few of these "hitchhikers" are unavoidable and are not anything to fear.

Special Mystery Plant Included

You will get 1-2 heads of another type of aquatic plant we think you will like. If you buy 2, you will get 2 unique mystery plants (3, 4, etc.).

Live Plant Promise

Plants may turn partly yellow/brown during transit and roots may be damaged. That is OK — they are extremely resilient and will begin multiplying within about one week of being placed in your tank. What you are buying should be viewed as a "seed" from which you will eventually get more plants than you know what do do with!

If for some reason your plants don't make it for any reason, not to worry — you are 100% protected by our Live Plant Promise.

Ordered on the 15th, came on the 22nd. Majority of them look alright, there are a few leaves that are damaged, but not beyond repair. Excited to have them already start out red, a lot of the pictures in the reveiws, they started out straight green. My only complaint is that I got so many single leafed plants, thought I was going to get a set of five, with 6 or so leaves on them each.I only got one pack of plants because they’re supposed to grow rapidly. You can see just how much they’re growing in a day, in the second and third picture already. I had to tuck them away so they could grow easier without the goldfish nipping at them constantly.I’ll update in throughout the week.Update: in the last two weeks, they have grown like crazy. They’re super red from underneath, but you cannot tell unless you physically flip them over, my lights so bright, it just shows green from the top. The last three pictures are the newer pictures after a week and a half. Defiantly worth the buy.Second to last update. After another two weeks, they’re turning red all throughout the tank. I’ve seen with mine at least, leaving the dying leaves long enough to keep the good ones from being submerged, and dying too. Plus my Goldie’s will eat the dying ones gladly, lol.

They came all the way from CA to RI with a heat pack with them. All arrived happy and pretty.

The shipping was fast & great. They messaged me night before shipping as well, probably a standard message but it’s still nice to know the communication is there. The heat pack was still warm when I picked it up from the post office (upon my request during a 20°F mid-winter day in Michigan, didn’t want to chance the mailbox). You can tell it was packaged with great care. None of the plants were damaged and they look so healthy. The bonus plant is such a great feature. I bought 4 packs from them at the same time and received 4 different bonus plants, so that is really considerate! I am posting same review on each one I ordered.

These took like over a week in the mail system so I was very sure I would be disappointed when they arrived and would have nothing but mush. So you can say I was shocked when I opened the package and they looked like they were just packaged. I don’t know what kind of witchcraft this is.The photos on here are entirely accurate as well. The roots are so red it’s unreal. They literally look fake. I’m so impressed I will definitely be ordering other kinds.Big thank you to the seller for great quality plants and for the sample included!

Red root floaters were nice and healthy when they arrived.These were packed in a zip lock bag with a single layer of basic bubble wrap surrounding that, then a cardboard box, and then a thin cardboard shipping envelope. This does not have any other protective thermal insulation other than what I listed. If you don't pay for the shipping, you will most likely receive mush in the summer or frozen chips (that turn into mush when they thaw out) in winter from the extended shipping time.Second "bonus" plant was separated within a smaller baggie and stuffed into the larger zip lock with the red-root-floaters. Label said "water spangles", but I suspect they are actually duckweed from how tiny they are. They also did not show the little bits of texture that water spangles are supposed to have.I feel like I lost the "bonus" lottery on this one. I don't really want water spangles or duckweed, so I will keep those separated from my tank and give them a chance to grow in a different container (isolated) for a while so I can correct myself if they do turn out to be water spangles. It's still a nice gesture to get a second plant type that you don't have to pay for, and some people actually want duckweed. I will be disposing of these via a USDA grade vegetation sterilization oven once I can confirm the plant type. Either version ARE invasive plant species for my area. No plant from an aquarium should ever be "released" into the local area ecosystem without confirming they are native to the area first. Even water changes should be inspected to make sure "baby" plants aren't hitching a ride down the drain.All the plants were healthy and it looks like they will be able to thrive. Pay for the shipping. It's worth the extra cost to make sure you get your ordered plants and they don't sit in some non-air-conditioned oven of a shipping truck for hours on end, waiting for the next part of their journey. It's the start of summer here in Southern Texas. The temperatures are going to be in the 90 degree range consistently for the next few months. That means it will be 120+ in a shipping truck payload area. You will literally BAKE your plants to death if you cheap out.
