The Baby Tears arrived quickly and looked healthy. They’ve grown well in my tank with moderate lighting and have become a great place for my small tetras to hide. Easy to plant and maintain.

I received 5 plants with a lead weight as mentioned. They spread nicely in the corner of my aquarium. Not the fastest grower, but they provide good cover and look attractive.
Jasmine Fraser –
Great value for the price. The plants are dense and create a nice green backdrop. My shrimp enjoy the area and the fish seem calmer now.
