    Received this plant and it is absolutely beautiful. I wasn't able to plant it right off, but it remained vibrant and health, placed it in the tank today and it is doing great.

    Potted Cardinal Plant
    Posted by Katie McNabb on 5 May 2023

    I can’t stress enough how pleased I am with my plants! Every one of them arrived quickly and in tip top shape. The cardinal plants especially looked amazing! They were so perfect, they looked fake. They arrived with at least 7 or 8 inches worth of growth and they’ve been planted for a week and they’ve already significantly grown- that’s with no Co2! Modern Aquarium is officially my go-to online source for plants!

    Packaged well, hearty plant, and already growing. Put it in the tank a few days ago, and added a little seachem flourish. This sucker is already sprouting new growth

    Vibrant colorful potted plants. Well rooted, abundant leaves, sturdy specimens. Look great in my 15 gal flex foreground. Nice to have some color in the tank!

    All pots were healthy and rooted and were packaged with care. They look great in my tank and are growing fast. Note: they grow green when submerged.

    My first time ordering the Cardinal plant, and now I wish I'd done so sooner. It's a really nice little plant. Super healthy, great colour, excellent condition. I'm very pleased with this plant!
