    About Mixed Boxes

    Mixed Boxes are the best way to add lots of plants into your aquarium without the hassle of having to choose the plants - leave it up to the experts!

    Our plant manager will persoanlly pick your plants choosing a range of foreground, midground and background plants. All mixed boxes have a range of colours and sizes so when they arrive with you, it looks beautiful immediately.

    What size should I choose?

    Select the mixed box that is closest to your aquarium taking into consideration any wood or rocks you already have in there. If that's the case, try the next size down.

    Can I request specific plants in a Mixed Box?

    You can't request specific plants but if you'd like more foreground than background for eg, shoot us a message and we'll see what we can do for you.

    The word Hayai means fast in Japanese, and this collection lives up to its name. This set of 12 fast-growing plants is specifically designed for new aquariums and cycling tanks.

    Why Fast-Growing Plants Matter

    During the critical startup phase, your tank produces ammonia - the primary food source for algae. Fast-growing plants absorb these nutrients before algae can take hold, giving you a cleaner, healthier tank from day one.

    What You'll Receive

    • 12 mixed fast-growing species
    • Perfect for absorbing excess nutrients during cycling
    • Helps prevent early algae outbreaks
    • Mix of foreground, midground, and background plants

    Note: You'll receive the plants shown in the images. In the rare case a specific species is unavailable, we'll substitute with the closest alternative.
