| "Healthy plants and good quantity for the price. The part I was most impressed with was the care taken with packaging the delivery. I’ve bought quite a few live plants online, but I’ve never seen someone package them this carefully before. The plants were healthy upon arrival and the seller even included a cute handmade paper crane. I will definitely return to this shop in the future. Thank you for taking the time to package the plants carefully!"

A stunning and easy care plant, aside from it's higher light requirements. 'Alternanthera Reineckii' gets tall, so be sure to add it towards the back of your aquarium! Don't let any floaters block its light!
Potted plants are rooted and much more established than cut bunches. (4-6" tall)
Highly recommend good lights and Co2 supplementation for most robust growth and color. You may even consider adding Iron supplementation and fertilizers. This plant fits right into a higher-tech aquarium!
Growing requirements:
- 65-80 Degrees Fahrenheit
- Ph 6-8
- High light intensity.
- Grows quickly
- Gets leggier, and more green with lower light.
- Co2 not necessary, but recommended for best color.
As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers!
