📦 Shipping & Live Arrival
Your plants are carefully selected and packaged to help protect them during transit.
Some temporary leaf curling, discoloration, or compression may occur during shipping. Most healthy plants recover as they adjust to their new aquarium.
Live Arrival Guarantee: Eligible orders are covered under our current Live Arrival Guarantee policy. Please review our shipping guidelines, especially during extreme temperatures and holiday shipping periods.
Important: Rinse and inspect plants before introducing them to your aquarium. Because these are live aquatic plants, occasional hitchhikers such as small snails or duckweed may be present.
