Salvinia Cucullata, is a floating aquatic plant that reproduces very quickly and has a fast growing rate. Coming from Central and South America, this plant is beneficial for any aquarium as it consumes ammonia and nitrates while providing shade and shelter for smaller top dweller fish, and fry.

Salvinia Cucullata has green cup-like leaves and will form a 'carpet' on the surface of your aquarium.

Salvinia Cucullata is somewhat hard to find but a great option to substitute the more common Salvinia Minima.

I've purchased this twice now and my neo shrimp love hiding in the roots. The first one is kinda of dying, not sure why but the roots are still growing so I I think it just needs to bounce back. I have higher hopes for this newer clump I got for my second tank.

The best condition of plants I've gotten so far from either online or in store. These were a little more effected from the journey than the others and haven't bounced back as much, but I'm still happy and have my fingers crossed. Shipping seemed to have gotten lost/delayed but when I messaged them, I got a response within an hour or so. Seller was very professional and helpful and shipping was immediate. They include a card for follow up instructions as well. Definitely will shop here again. I'm very pleased!

Disappointed: Dead Snails on Arrival

I ordered six snails, but unfortunately, all but one were dead when I received them. I didn’t realize this at the time.

When I opened the package, I found a rectangular piece of wet paper towel in a plastic bag. I cut open the plastic bag and unfolded the paper towel to reveal six snails with their lids closed. I thought they might be closed from the stress of their trip, so I immediately put them in a jar and started drip-acclimating them to my fish tank’s water.

After an hour of acclimating, they still had their lids closed. I put them in my tank, and one of them started moving after a few hours. I was thrilled to have six new beluga snails! But after 24 hours, the other five snails remained motionless.

I took them out to check on them, and an overwhelming smell hit my nostrils. I tried separating them to see if it was just one snail, but unfortunately, they all had the same unbearable smell. They had to be put in the trash.

If all of them had been alive, I would give them five stars. If they had been properly packaged, I would probably give them three stars. However, the fact that all of them were wrapped in paper towel and all but one were dead justifies only one star.

Beautiful blue extremely effective cleaning snails

Purchased 3 for a 75 gal. vivarium. All 3 were up and actively cleaning a rock within 5 minutes of being placed in water. I've ordered twice from this seller and both purchases arrived extraordinarily well packed, fresh and lively. Strongly recommended for aquatic enthusists with a need for quality.

Never received

Thank you.

Packaging was excellent and I received plants in excellent condition. The only drawback was you were experiencing shipments delays but didn’t inform me until I called 10 days after I had placed order. Better communication with customer would earn you a 5 star rating and my repeat business.

We hear you! We're very sorry for the shipping delay. We've been a little backed up on orders but we'll work on that to make the fulfilling process as quick as possible. I am happy to hear all plants arrived in excellent condition and hope you can give us another chance in the near future. Thank you so much!

2 were dead when arrived
