I can't believe this guy's claim but I refunded his money anyway.

And lastly the two hygro stems have a lot of holes in the leaves from snails and i lot of chunks missing as well from snails. There were some snails in the bag with them when i opened it.

I'm not trying to come off nasty but I am very disappointed with the quality of the plants. I have ordered many plants from people on this site and plantedtank.net and these have to be the worst, no offense. I'm sorry for this message but i had to be honest and tell you how I felt about this whole transaction. " Quote]

The java fern didn't have brown slime - the brown color under the leaves are spores. I remember washing the Hygros and there were no holes on the leaves. The blyxa turns reddish brown (blush)under high T5HO lighting.

When I receive plants I buy online, I always wash them before planting. If I find a snail I just throw it in the pond.
