Hey Daku!
My apologies for the late review. First let me start by saying that I placed a decent size order sight unseen all because of a video I stumbled across. I am happy to say that every plant arrived healthy and I was pleasantly surprised by the portion size of each plant that I ordered. The Java fern matt’s were huge and vibrant. I will be ordering from Daku again in the future. I especially am looking forward to getting some of the different types of Badis that he breeds!
Thanks again, Joe
Beautiful!
Excellent size to drop a lush and full patch of ferns into your tank. It doesn't need to be weighed or tied down, either. I bought one and placed it into a corner of a 20 long behind some hardscape and it was instantly full. Bonus, it came with some new plants already forming and I was able to make a small bundle in a couple weeks.
