I purchased a beginner specific plant for a 20Gal tank I am setting up. It arrived very quickly and in great condition. It was the finishing touch my tank needed. My only regret is that I didn’t realize how much shipping was going to cost - I paid more for shipping than I did the plant. I would have purchased more to maximize shipping expense.
Got 4 different types of plants. A little meltage in the first few weeks as expected. Otherwise doing good. All of them are happily growing and there were no pests! (My betta and my ember tetras get along for anyone stressed)
Very happy with the condition the plants came in. Packaging was well done, will buy again.
I ordered a bunch of plants, more than $160 worth and even getting the buy 2 get one free deal so several of my plants were free. They came in quickly and in excellent condition. All of the crypts were gorgeous and many of them were able to be split and planted separately. The anubias are incredible, large, beautiful leaves, perfect condition. The stem plants were nice, healthy cuttings. Everything is doing fantastic. I have ordered plants from many online, well known stores and have had mixed results but I will likely get all of my future plants from The Aquarium Plants Factory, I haven’t found better selection, quality or prices. I have 16 fully planted tanks from 80 gallons down to 5 gallons so I have plenty of plant experience.
I just received my first purchase of plants from Aquarium Plants Factory and will definitely purchase from there again in the future as I set up new tanks. And I would highly recommend them to family and friends. My plants were extremely healthy and have done very well, and look beautiful in our tank.
By the time I received my order, they all were a melty mess! Waste of money!

Received quickly in great shape. All plants are rooting well after 3 days in our tank.
I love tidy aquarium plants, and I’ve always loved the character of TAME specimens of the pennywort family. In re-scaping my 10 gal tank, I knew I wanted to include gorgeous, umbrella-topped stems I could manage. I have a rosetail betta whose long fins can really get snagged on the usual Java ferns and most stemmed plants; but he can zip through long upright, non-branching stems. I had never actually seen Hydrocotyle verticillata but I loved the idea of discrete stems growing through substrate on a trailing rhizome. I only ordered a few, but once planted, the effect is exactly what I’d hoped for. The plants are settling after just a few days, and I love them.
I am giving 4 stars vs 5 mostly because 1 of the 3 Crypt Wendtii vitro plants I received was basically melted on arrival, the other 2 looked very nice. And the very expensive ($29.99 each) Buce I ordered looks extremely similar to the $9.99 each Buce from top fin brand at pet smart.
Other than that - they all arrived packed with care and with the size / quantity as described. I would order again and recommend to others.
This plant grows slowly and is more demanding than most stem plants. It is also difficult to propagate and takes time to develop new roots. However, once it adapted to my low-tech tank, it grew beautifully and exceeded my expectations. Its soft pink-purple leaves and elegant shape make it a stunning focal point in the aquarium
First of all, the plants are gorgeous! Secondly, some plants are already melting but I’m not panicking. I just make sure I’m providing the right amount of light and picking up pieces that are falling off. I’m trying to keep the faith! ☺️
So far so good! My lotus has new leaves developing. Watching the other plants as they adjust. I am pleased with how the plants look in the tank.
My frogbit came yellow and died, The Hydrocotyle Japan is close to dying and the monte carlo was falling apart when it got here
Good looking plants and great packaging!!
Rotala Sunset - the quality is definitely 5 star - healthy, great quality.
Rotala Green - 3.5 quality - some of stems had a bit of yellowing, ok quaity.
Buce Petite Galaxy 3.5 quaiity - the plant roots were a bit on the poor side. The leaves have fair qualirty - Just the Rhizomes was a a bit on tyhe poor side
Xmas Moss - 5 stars - Green, healthy, no issues
Crypt Pava - 5 stars - healthy plants no issues.
Montecarlo - well, the quality a little disappointing there - 3 stars.
The Rotala Sunset is by far the best I ever received.
I love these plants and I can’t wait for them to adapt to my tank,Thanks
Ordered several different plants for my new aquarium. Only place that had every type of plant I wanted. They arrived very well packaged and in good health! My "go to" for plants from now on!
