In a few days, after placing your plants in the aquarium you will notice some of the leaves start to melt and fall away.
This means the transition process has started. Please note the plants might look DEAD, but they are fully alive, so do not panic. Also, after a few days you will notice new growth will appear and the plant will fully change its form into submersed growth. You need to continuously trim and put a fertilizer in for the plants to thrive in your aquarium. Two good fertilizers include Easy Life – Profito and Scape Complete or our premium APT Zero. All plants have specific needs but if you follow the general instructions on our labels the plant will transition well and will eventually succeed and prosper in your aquarium.

*This is a Potted Plant and NOT a Tissue Culture Plant. This plant was grown in a greenhouse and is NOT guaranteed to be snail, algae or pesticide-free. Potted plants are cheaper than Tissue Culture Plants as they are not grown in a sterile laboratory. They generally appear to be bigger than Tissue Culture plants. We recommend Tissue Culture Plant for 100% client satisfaction.

McMerwe’s comments: Kaiser Aquatics Hygrophila Polysperma fills in beautifully as a background or midground plant, and trimming it regularly encourages lush, compact growth. It’s unfussy, tolerant of varying parameters, and thrives whether you run a high-tech or low-tech setup. [Rating: 5/5]

Love this plant, didn’t need to wait for it to melt leaves either, I think you guys must have had it in some water already, it arrived healthy and green and looks awesome in the background of our nanoscape. Thank you so much.
