The plant pack arrived quickly and the variety is impressive. I planted the Java Fern and Anubias, and they’ve grown well in my 100-gallon tank. The lighting setup I already had worked perfectly with the moderate light requirement. Easy to care for and adds a natural look to the tank.

I was a bit unsure about the plant compatibility, but after setting up the lighting and using Flourite substrate, everything settled in well. The Hornwort and Cabomba are thriving, and the Amazon Sword looks great. Would recommend for beginners with moderate lighting setups.

The pack includes a good mix of plants that cover different areas of the tank. I used the recommended lighting and substrate, and the growth has been steady. The plants are hardy and don’t need frequent pruning. Very satisfied with the purchase.
