Bella Robertson –
I added three Corkscrew Vallisneria plants to my 10-gallon tank. The spiral leaves are very distinctive and add a natural look. They’ve grown well in a few weeks with regular water changes and moderate lighting. Easy to plant and maintain.
Thomas Bailey –
The plants arrived quickly and came with lead weights, which helped them stay in place. I noticed the leaves curling slightly, which is normal. They’re a great addition to my mid-level aquascape and don’t require much attention.
