Amazing stems and portion size for the rotala indica. I ordered more. Will continue to return as customer!
Nice sized bunches. Growing great, zero melt.
Such a hearty portion and at a great price! These arrived in amazing condition and I was able to use them in both tanks I wanted to with the perfect amount going into each!
Love this plant! Daku aquatics sent me LOTS of stems, enough I was able to not only plant my first aqua scape but to add the extra stems to 2 other tanks! So I was able to plant 3 tanks with rotala indica! I gave it some time to get established and was worried about one of my nano tanks I stuck it in but it’s thriving in all 3 tanks of varying sizes ph and temperatures! This might be my new fav plant for lush jungle scapes! And it’s just so versatile and beautiful! You can’t go wrong with this plant! Perfect for a beginner like me :)
