Nicely packaged and releases concentrated tannins quickly. Tinted my ten-gallon aquarium very deeply after about ten minutes, with hardly any change to pH. Very pleased! :)
I got the forest floor builder instead of a kit because i wanted to choose my own wood, and i was not disappointed! I havent set up my tank as i am waiting for gravel and heater to arrive. But i am beyond pleased with the selection i received.
My whole order (first order ever too) was amazing. I got two pieces of wood, and theyre stunning. Not sure if the photo is uploading correctly but i guess we'll see.
This pod is HUGE, like unexpectedly huge, which I suppose would make sense for the price, so I'm super happy with everything! Meant for my small 11 gallon, but definitely going to be much better for my larger 110 gallon.
It was a large ice pack but arrived warm with the rest of the package warm.
It was a little rough when it arrived. About half the mesh was brown. I have it in a grow out basin with ramshorn snails to try and rejuvenate it before using it in my shrimp tank.
I purchased alder cones initially to help safely and gradually decrease my water hardness. As it turns out, my Betta is totally intrigued by them! They provide great engagement for him, and he is constantly investigating them and searching for food along the stems. Something about them seems to trigger an instinctive response in him and their presence adds to his quality of life. And as a bonus, they beautify my tank and help add to the natural aquascape I’m striving towards. Definitely recommend.
My Betta loved this from the moment I added it, and it’s now his favorite place to hang out. I love the way it looks in the tank, and that it provided a natural environment for my Betta. The inside is smooth and Betta fin friendly, and provides ample space for him to swim in and out. Prep was easy and the directions were fantastic. I soaked the pod for an additional 24 hours with a weight to hold it under water and get it really water logged. When I added it to the tank, it easily sat on the bottom and didn’t float up at all. Highly recommend!
This kit is a great way to start botanical aquariums. Ben went out of his way to make sure I had something that would work for my unique tank. Would highly recommend for beginners.
I recieved a big and beautiful Vallisneria! Would highly recommend for beginners.
Super good for my betta! Will be ordering again
Like the first order a couple months ago, nice plants, quality packaging and speedy arrival
As usual, the large cattapa leaves, jungle pods and alder cones were excellent quality and a great value. Whenever it’s time to refresh my botanicals , this is the only shop I go to!
Perfect little cave, looks awesome and smells great when boiling!
It gives a nice touch of yellow tint to the water!
Great products and Ben answered all my questions regarding what botanicals to use in my aquarium. Thank you!!
Our branch is absolutely beautiful and looks just like the picture!
