PLEASE NOTE:

All of our live aquarium plants are carefully selected, quality checked, and securely packaged before dispatch to ensure they arrive in the best possible condition. Plants are shipped using a tracked 24-hour delivery service wherever available (for example, orders dispatched on Wednesday are expected to arrive on Thursday). For more information on delivery, please check the delivery area on our website or terms & conditions. 

Upon arrival, we recommend removing the plants from their packaging and placing them into your aquarium as soon as possible. Plants should be planted according to your preferred aquascape design to help them settle and begin establishing themselves in their new environment.

As these are natural, living plants, some variation in size, colour, shape, and appearance is normal. Plants may experience a short adjustment period after being introduced to a new aquarium and can take several days to several weeks to fully adapt, re-root, and show new growth depending on the species and tank conditions.

Every plant is thoroughly inspected before dispatch and checked for unwanted pests, including snails. However, due to the nature of live aquatic plants, it is not possible to guarantee that plants are completely free from snails, snail eggs, or other microscopic organisms. Customers who require complete pest-free assurance should consider quarantining or treating plants before introducing them to their aquarium.

By purchasing live plants, you acknowledge that they are natural products and that minor cosmetic imperfections, seasonal variations, or temporary transplant stress may occur during shipping and acclimatisation.
