"Healthy plants arrived well packaged for shipping. Ordered several types and all doing well with little to no melt."
Lilaeopsis Brasiliensis is a wonderful choice for aquarists looking for a low-maintenance carpeting aquarium plant for the foreground of a planted aquarium tank. Similar to Lilaeopsis Novaezelandiae, better known as Micro Sword, Lilaeopsis Brasiliensis is another species that offers very compact growth and a short height that creates the coveted "lawn effect". Lilaeopsis Brasiliensis offers a rich green hue and is quite forgiving of neglect. This aquarium plant does not require CO2 injection or extremely high lighting but will grow much quicker and more compact when provided with it. Its small size makes it the perfect choice for all planted aquarium tank sizes! To propagate, simply snip along the runners with quality aquascaping tools and replant into quality, nutrient-dense aquarium soil.

"I live on the east coast so the plant had a rough journey, arrived all shaken up in the cup, but was easily cleaned. Plant was healthy and no dead plant tissue or mold. Just wish they used liquid median instead of gel due to liquid shipping better."
"There was a technical problem and it apeared that this wasn't available after payment, And it was refunded. When they realized it was available, they offered free shipping to send it after the rest of the order was already sent. A second cup was added to the order for free. I thought that was great service."
