Hygrophila Salicifolia (Rugged background plant)
We have become known for our Hygrophilas.
THIS IS A BANGER. (I know people who keep this beast with cichlids... but I don't know your fish)
THESE ARE SWEET LOOKING PLANTS. Better than the photos!
This Hygrophila Salicifolia is one that you must try no matter what skill level. It is a relentless plants. You have probably heard of water wisteria. This plant is it's cousin if you will.
We love this hygro because it brings you that big strong stem plants look that you want as your background. It might pause for just a second to get rolling in your aquarium but rest assured, as long as you are running even remotely decent water, this plant will THRIVE for you.
You could pull out each individual stem out of the bunches we sell and it would branch out on its own. (This is a favorite plant during our $1 per stem sale for this very reason. The single stems are WOW when left to grow out on their own)
If you are running lower light aquariums this plant will be a tab more leggy and thinner.
On a scale of 1-10 I give this a two for ease of keeping.
Customer Reviews
I have ordered plants from several places. Also got them from local pet stores. The plants I received from dustins, hands down best looking, healthiest, best shipped plants I have ever gotten! I cannot wait to see them grow! Thank you for the awesome quality you provide!
Well packaged, with directions for rookies, no melting so far. You can see the three. One in the right corner front, one center back in front of wood tree and one left corner back.
Arrived as promised, packed and shipped efficiently and everything was perfect! My new plants are thriving and I can already see growth happening! 100% satisfied! Already placed my second order!
Packaged very well and just as described wasn't a small little seedling it was a nice specimen just like the picture
Received my order as a first time customer and first time ordering plants to be shipped to me. I was amazed with the care and effort that went into packaging my plants to make sure they arrived with no damage or extreme Temperature exposure. Plants looked great and healthy adapting to my planted aquarium just fine. Would definitely purchase from Dustin's Fish Tanks again.
