Great product. Easy to mould to a shape. Felt like it needed to be fuller but not a huge issue as will grow.
Fresh product that is growing well. Super fast delivery too.
Plenty of plants in these pots. They are small when you get them but look good

Originating from Madagascar the Aponogeton ulvaceus Bulb is a beautiful centre piece for your tank. This bulb has bright green vellum-like, heavy crimpled leaves. The older bulbs can grow up to 50 leaves given the right conditions!!!!
This plant grows QUICKLY in the aquarium too under basic conditions. We provide it will very little light and it grows even with little water movement. We've tried it under faster water movement and it loves that too which means this plant is suitable for beginners and up.
In terms of positioning, obviously the background is the only suitable location. Simply drop it into the chosen location and leave it be. It will throw roots down and anchor itself. Note: All bulbs are sent without leaves (so bulb only).
There are many varieties of Aponogeton ulvaceus, some of which need a dormant period, when the root does not produce leaves. This often lasts for several months so if no leaves are growing, patience is needed.

Can’t believe how quickly this little bulb grew. Very happy with products and delivery fast and efficient.
Will be using this store again without hesitation.
Had two of these bulbs delivered with no leaves (as described) within 3 days it had sprouted and now they are monstrous with giant flowering arms. They are a favourite with all of the fish but the Cory's especially love them. The picture below is a month after planting a bald bulb and they Arnt even in the aquasoil, they are actually just plonked on the sand !
Super impressed. Bulb arrived with a few stubby shoots and with a couple of days it was already growing strongly. It looks healthy and you can almost see it growing it’s doing so well w. Highly recommended
unsure which way up to plant these, so just dropped in and they sprouted in 2 days 4 days on, they are roughly 3 inches. Very pleased

Healthy bulbs, starting to sprout. Looking forward to seeing how these turn out.

As usual, my order was received on time, well packaged, and in great condition. The plant itself, when received, was not much to look at, just a bulb with no leaves. but now, after a couple of weeks in my tank has grown two healthy leaves growing vigorously along with evidence of two new leave about to sprout. I am more than pleased with my purchase and will buy more.

Arrived quickly and in excellent condition. Was extremely well packaged. Never seen a plant grow so quickly!! Looks fantastic waving in the water. Would definitely buy from Aqua Essentials in the future and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others.

Lovely little plant in great condition and already starting to sprout new leaves. This is one of the best conditioned ferns I have ever got.
So happy with my plants I received chose the 12 mystery box as not disappointed great company and plants will totally recommend
Ive been wanting to plant my not so very planted shrimp tank up for months, and ive been trying to find the best plants to look nice (large in the back to smallest in the foreground) and i come across the scaped for you section. I am pretty much a novice at planting tanks as this is my first ever time doing it. Firstly id say that while this does come with a layout guide, it is only a guide and not a "how to" because it is only an image that is provided and nothing else. This isnt a bad thing of course because your tank is you own and you can do whatever you want with it. It took me about 2-3 hours to fully complete how i wanted it and set it up with the plants and after a few days of settling in looks so much better than i expected it. I love it and i think my shrimps do too :) - one thing to note i would say is if youre buying spider wood, make sure you weight it down or soak it for a long time before putting it in the tank as your first placement will most definitely float and cause some frustration. Id definitely buy this or another scaped for you option in the future if i wanted to do this again.
Did not expect the Lagenandra to look so good I love it. Great order again, fast arrival, & no issues 👌🏼
This is the second time I've bought from this shop and both times products arrived in good time and in very good shape. Plants are always a decent size and healthy
