5 LIVE Mangroves - Red Mangrove Seedlings - Filtration, Aquarium, Reef, Tank, Saltwater, Aquatic, Plants

Order for 5, received 7. All alive and well. Putting out new leaves and roots. I appreciated the care instructions included.

I don't often write reviews, but had to for this one.After ordering, I started to kind of regret it due to the other reviews stating they need to be acclimated to saltwater. Somone even mentioned to just get them from Algae Barn, which I have done before. But before I could cancel my order they shipped already (way faster than expected ship date, almost 2 weeks faster).When they arrived, I was already not regretting my decision given the box itself was almost 2ft long. I opened up the box, and it was not just the packaging, the mangroves were huge. Which is actually why I ordered from here, given the reviews stated they were much larger than advertised. The shortest one is probably about 16", with a few being 24". They also sent me 7, versus the 5 I ordered.When I ordered from Algae Barn in the past, I got exactly how many I ordered and if I recall, only 1 or 2 even had leaves (a single leaf) on them and were maybe 9" max, while again these are huge and all have multiple leaves.Don't listen to the other comments, even if you have to saltwater acclimate them, it is well worth it. Mangroves grow slowly, so even if you have to acclimate them for 2 weeks, you save a year on growth rate.

I’m VERY happy with the condition of these plants. I’m always hesitant ordering alive items online but they looked as if I just picked them up in person. They also showed up 4 days earlier which was a nice surprise. The package came with an information sheet which was super helpful as I likely would have done the opposite. I picked up some suction cup ties to “float” the plants without having them move and I am very happy with the outcome. If these plants die on me, it will have nothing to do with the seller as they came in perfect condition. Healthy roots, healthy stems, and healthy leaves. One plant in my pic doesn’t have many leaves and that’s because I turned my back and my cat decided to take one to her hiding spot without me noticing for about 10mins. Overall, great product!!! Now I just need a solid light source for them

Always wanted to give it a shot. I had a brackish water tank set up with a mudskipper. Thought these would be a great idea to decorate the tank and give it some contrast. They came in in OK shape and lived in the tank for about 3 to 6 months before passing, I doubt it was the plants fault probably my care of the tank foot one into freshwater that if I remember correctly lasted a little longer but later past I would definitely try it again if I had the tank set up

These red mangroves came in healthy and with fresh leaves, excellent condition. They were a good size about 18- 20 inches tall. They were green and growing. I was going to put them in my brackish tank but then I would have to wipe the leaves of salt every few days, so I ended up putting them in my Mystery Snail tank which has a high pH like they are used to but without the salt. They don't need the salt they just need the high pH. I have had them for about a few months, and I noticed new growth this past week. I would definitely order from them again.

All dead

These were much more developed than I was expecting and it was a pleasant surprise. Great packaging and the plants were well secured. Arrived intact and in great health. Very happy with my purchase.

Ordered 5, received 7. All came with a great root system and solid growth. They added instructions as well if you don't know how to handle them.
