You look great in my goldfish pond!

I bought a pair of these for the goldfish pond. I love her! They look great and give my fish a soft, safe place to explore and hide. This plant has a beautiful natural appearance. I'll definitely be ordering a few more. They may need gluing to a larger rock as they would probably benefit from a little more support to stand in such a large body of water, but even when dropped they look fine. There shouldn't be any problems in the aquarium, as the soil is surprisingly quite heavy.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Safety

Good plant, good for plastic plants

It was a little bigger than expected, so be sure to check the dimensions before buying. awkward to leave in the aquarium, leaves are strewn everywhere so it tips over very easily. Eventually I just tied some stems together and things got better (don't worry I cut and filed the sharp parts of the strings). It would be nice if the base was weighted more. I can't deny my cock likes to hide in this thing - see photo.

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
  • working speed

Excellent quality but very large

Let me first say that this is a good quality plant that looks like silk but is huge. Because of the size of the leaves/petals and the thin plastic stems, this thing dangles without moving. With the current traffic it just looks like a huge hot mess. I put this in a 20 gallon aquarium and it looked a little silly with leaves that big. Just be prepared for how big it really is. Pros: - Good quality, well-made fabric. - Realistic movement with sufficient power. - Very attractive appearance. Cons:…

beautiful, soft but doesn't look very natural

Definitely recommend this plant. It's nice and soft and gives my betta the perfect place to hang and hide. I bought the medium size when I should have bought the small. However, instead of bringing it back, I separated the three main vines and turned them into three separate smaller plants, weighted down with thick glass beads. Now they fit perfectly and look great rocking in the water. The leaves have beautiful natural shades of green and burgundy. Unfortunately, plastic tendrils make the…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Not for everyone

Great plant for fish and aquatic life

This is a silky green plant with dark purple leaves. I find it very realistic and beautiful. I'm medium size which is quite tall. The colors are bright, but not so garish that they look artificial. I would love to have real plants one day, but until then this is your best bet. I have a 25 gallon fresh water tank that I decorated with 12 milkweed - small, medium and large - and arranged the plants around the black lava rocks and added a blue background. Vegetable colors look great with stones…
