Amcharis arrived with minimal melt, was well packaged and there was a perfect amount for my 5gal tank! Despite the post office damaging my package, everything arrived safe because of Daku's good padding. Thank you!
The anacharis is coming along so well, one stalk is almost to the top of my in just a couple of weeks! And my shrimp are loving their little forest!
Bought some of these back in november, packaged beautifully and all arrived looking great! Theyre growing like weeds!
