6 Amazon Frogbit (Limnobium Laevigatum), Live Aquarium/Aquatic Floating Plant by Aqua L'amour

I have a 29 gallon tannin stained aquarium. I actually received 8 separate plants. They arrived very early which was nice and they looked super healthy. The roots are strong and have grown quickly; one of the roots has grown to be around 8 inches in about a week! My betta fish appreciates a shady spot and I love the way they look. First quality plant I have bought from Amazon that didn't die within a week. I am impressed. One set has yellowing of leaves but I don't mind it.I quarantined these for about 5 days. I suspect that these plants were treated before they were shipped and that is why most of the hitchhikers (mosquitos I believe) were DOA, but there were some bladder snails that made it. I really don't mind at all. I have snails of my own actually, but because bladder snails reproduce asexually, I wouldn't be able to control the population, so I simply set them in a wet spot of my garden.I believe that the big leaves that I have are full grown. It looks like they get to be a little bigger than a quarter. I have heard that the tops of frogbit need to be dry or they will rot, but I have kept a bubbler right next to them and haven't had any issues ( may be because I have my LED hood light about 3 inches above it).You might think I'm crazy to give this 5 Stars if there were pests, but that should speak to the quality of these plants. The bugs just floated to the top during quarantine and the bladder snails were easily removable. This has been the best value and the healthiest, high-quality plant I've ever purchased on Amazon. I have purchased many plants on Amazon and they all have died very quickly, so of course I had to give this five stars.(I kept my floaters away from the filter by tying string to suction cup leaves I placed on either side of the tank. )

For what you get, these frogbit plants are WAY overpriced. I knew they would be small, but they were teeny tiny. I got 6 plants and each of them only had 1-2 leaves on them and all of the leaves were smaller than a dime. The margins of the leaves were brown and slimy when I got them out of the packaging, so I knew they probably wouldn't make it. Sure enough, within a week, all of them were dead. They were put in an established koi pond, so it was just the poor quality/poor shipping of the plants - not the water quality, etc. I've ordered plants from other sellers on Amazon and have been extremely pleased. These sellers are not worth buying from.

At first I thought I killed this frogbit because all the roots turned brown and stringy like yarn. But I later realized this was just the plant recovering from the stress of shipping and then immediately changing water parameters. The plants looked to be struggling for a few weeks but now they are adjusted and look great. One of my favorite plants in the tank, I just love the fantastical, mythical look of hanging roots.They did not come with snails, pests, or any disease. What more can you ask for from an aquarium plant seller online.

I wanted Frogbit for my aquarium which has baby fry so this is what I chose. I was concerned about the Frogbit not doing well because it took 5 days to receive them but they look great, green and large. It's been 4 days and they still look nice! I would recommend this seller!

Must be too hot to ship here. Didn’t receive 6 plants only 5...mostly dead. Barely any green at all, but I think they can be saved. I wouldn’t have paid full price for these even at a local specialty shop though. One of the 5 (not 6) was just a leaf and it was dead. Way too overpriced for what you are getting. I’ve got them isolated under my plant lights to see if I can save them. My setup is pretty good so I should be able to, but if you are an amateur, I’d look locally. That way you see what you are buying and weather isn’t an issue. To be clear I would have been fine and had planned on waiting since it says they won’t ship if it’s gonna be over 90 degrees in your area. Welp that’s not true. I expected a delayed order bc of the temp here right now. Guess that’s on me for being gullible though. I will update the review if they make it, but still this isn’t the quality you expect for the price. That won’t change.

The plants arrived healthy and alive, which is surprising as I was expecting a few brown leaves after reading some of the reviews. The frogbit was bright green and adapted very well to my tank. I had to cut them back a few times because it was overrunning my tank, but to me that's a sign they are thriving. I didn't have any die off at any time either. My only complain is the fact that they arrived with pest snails, but I expected that to be the case as is with most plants, I did end up getting rid of all of them as there weren't too many but it did take a bit of time to find them all and get them out. Other than that the plants are still in my tank and doing great, I grew more in a second tank I set up later on.

May, 2021: These came in a small snack-sized zip lock bag. Each leaf was about the size of the metal part of a USB C or IOS connector or smaller. When laid out in the water all plants together they covered an area about the size of a dollar bill folded in half. They look healthy though. No obvious snails, bugs, etc (examined each leaf). We'll see how well / fast they grow in a big pond and update this later.

All the frogbits i got were single leaves split up and none actually connected to the roots, i tried to place them in my established pond and all are dead and shriveled up when all my other plants are thriving. Bad plants received.
