Wonderful!
The plant was delivered clean and green, in very neat packaging. It looks wonderful, healthy, and the roots are trimmed. A healthy, beautiful plant. Thanks to the seller.

Gorgeous, good quality and growing very well
Ordered a few and all have done super well! They also arrived in good shape. The purple leaves are very vibrant and have held up nicely without the use of CO2.

$20 for a dead plant
The plant came mostly dead and looked as if it was just a few leaves clipped from a larger plant. There were no roots, it’s was rotting and falling apart. It does not look like the picture and I’m disappointed I spent the money.

Subtrate Source is the BEST. No doubt about it.
I've bought a handful of plants from Subtrate Source I've never had any problems. The plants always show up healthy and in great conditions. This last order I placed I bought a couple anubias and a Ludwigia Repens. AMAZON had issues delivering in the expected time, therefore, the anubias luckily made alive but the Ludwigia was DOA. I reached out to Subtrate Source team and they responded in a heart beat and with no hesitation they sent another bunch that arrived alive and well. Subtrate Source is the BEST place to go for aquarium plants on Amazon, hands down. They will definitely take care of you!!! You're the best Substrate Source Team! Keep it up!

Ordered twice and died both times leaving a huge mess in my tank.
I ordered this plant twice and both times it died and left a huge mess in my tank and filtration system. It was not cheap and having to clean up my tank and filtration system repeatedly, as the plant was shutting leaves until it was nothing, was highly annoying and time consuming. I later learned from a local fish store that when buying plants online you need to know how hard your local water is, and the water hardness of the place where your plants are being sold from. Apparently, if you put a plant that was raised in softer or neutral water into hard water it will cause damage to the plant. Some plants that are more sensitive to this will not make it, and they will die. I am guessing because they looked healthy when I put them in that it is because of this that the plants did not make it. However, this kind of information and knowledge should be clearly displayed with your products if you are selling aquatic plants, so that customers could be informed and knowledgeable about what choices they make. I gave this product to stars because it did come healthy, but there was no information displayed anywhere, explaining what water hardness can do to this product.

Expensive One Plant $9 Ship Fee
For $20 which also a $9 ship fee you're better off going to Petco even. I got ripped. One plant and only reason I have two is because it was so slimy it broke off when I touched it. It's pretty once in the tank but I'm better off at petco. Looks much nice when placed in the tank but again is very slimy and alot of fine leaves broke off i had to turn up my filter pump. Cheaper and better quality at petco. Probably the cost and for what you get is most alarming..

Looks Good, But I Have A Concern
The plant arrived today and looks great, but I’m concerned. It came in a bag, completely dry, and without any roots. I placed it in my tank with Fluval aqua soil, Seachem root tabs, and liquid fertilizer with iron, to give it the best chance of surviving. It appears healthy otherwise, but I worry it may struggle to take to the tank without roots and after arriving bone dry.
