1st review 1 star
The first time it arrived, the plant was already dead with several transparent and brown leaves, a soft root not hard as it should be, and it smelled of rot as soon as I took it out of the bag... I like it and I definitely want it in my aquarium as a background to also reduce the power of the filter for my betta who prefers calmer waters and to hide the cables at the back, so it would be the 6th and last plant to complete my aquarium. I will place a second order, but if it arrives dead again, after a third time that's it... I give up... I will go for vallisneria again but a different variety... probably the tiger one... not the gigantea... but in terms of beauty, nothing compares to the asiatica for me... it's more of a jungle vibe... the others are like planting onions in the aquarium... very minimal... simple... common... I don't know... it's not my taste.
So, I ordered again right away, this time 3 not just one to be sure that at least one of them would arrive alive, but in the end, they all came in good condition. They have already been planted and even though they are small, they look wonderful... I can't wait for them to grow and spread out, that's when their true beauty will show... I don't regret my choice for a moment... wonderful...
