K. Goodrich: Don’t expect Java fern to look like the picture. Purchased two of these. Seems healthy and ok size for the price. I’ll see how they do in my tank. I’ll plant together as I have a 75 gallon tank and they are a bit small.

Timothy Rodowicz: I’m still waiting on 3 more plants I ordered in the same order. Other than that though this arrived fairly quickly. It was packaged in a sealed plastic bag with no sort of moisture in it, nothing covering the roots to provide moisture, nothing to weigh it down in the aquarium. Just a loose bunch. I assume if it had taken any longer to arrive it would have started to wilt. I’m still happy with it, the plant looks healthy and once slightly buried in the sand of the aquarium the leaves all stand upright. No sign of wilting or dead plant matter. The root area looked nice and strong. I think this plant will have a long life among my Largemouth Bass and Bluegill. I am a little worried about the other 3 plants and how they will fair by the time they arrive.

(UPDATE)
This plant is doing great. Luckily because it has a sort of root system I was able to get it embedded at the bottom of the tank. I had to move it once because where I put it initially my pet Bass had bumped it enough that it pulled free of the sand. It is nice and healthy, greener than when it arrived, and is doing well just from the nutrients in the tank due to leftover food(worm bits, feeder fish bits, bugs...

OleadaOleada: This was the first time for me ordering live plants online, and I am so very happy with this purchase. Even with the shipping costs ordering plants for my tank here turned out to be cheaper than buying them from my local fish store. The plant arrived well packed and looking healthy , all the leaves and roots are in great condition. It is big and adds so much needed lush green space for my fishes and snail. Very happy with it!
UPD: Got two more plants, they are awesome! Always come neatly packed, green and healthy. My fishes love them!
