Review on Live Freshwater Aquarium Plants: Dwarf Baby Tears, Hemianthus Callitrichoides, Java Moss In Vitro TC Cup By Greenpro by Chris Knight

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Arrived in great condition, still monitoring it's growth

I got the product fast (as stated when in the order). The plant was very much alive all green and I did not find any snails. I have the Seachem Black Flourite and Fluval Plant and Shrimp Stratum as my base substrate on my new aquarium.Divided up the plant and planted into the substrate. The photo shows (in one spot) how it looked like after 1 week. It's been 2 weeks and I can't say if it is growing or not. Every now and then I would see stems floating and I would stick it back into the substrate. Instruction said that it might welt not rot and that welting is normal. So far I think mine welted.Tested the water daily and the nitrite, nitrate, pH, ammonia, hardness, chlorine, and alkalinity are all normal.I will continue to monitor it and see what happens. I all goes well, I will buy another one to plant in my other aquarium.Update: well it’s been over 2 weeks since I planted this in my new aquarium. Sad to say most of it are gone, floated away. I did pick those and replanted them. Some of them though I can see the root side turned brown, I presume they were dead. The pic I posted, only 10% of that is left.I contacted the seller and they suggested to plant it using dry start method (DSM). They responded quickly but too late. Almost of the plant is gone.I plan to get one again (once available) and will plant it separately using DSM and letting it grow roots. Then I replant it in my aquarium. Not sure if this is the right way to go.
