I'll never be ordering from this place again. Ordered at 9AM on a Monday morning and didn't receive my overnight shipment until Thursday. I realize shipping doesn't include processing time, but these guys really need to get their times down. When I called for a status check on Wed. they couldn't even tell me for sure when it would be going out.

One of the items I ordered was listed as in-stock on their website, but wasn't. They ended up subbing 2x Limnophila Americana v. Baewensis for 3 bunches of some horrible looking red plant (thinking Nesaea Red or a type of Ludwiga). ALL the bunches were infested with green algae. Would be nice if they'd at least tell you wtf they subbed with..... All the plants were soppy as hell from excess H20 in the ziploc and wraps. Even the potted HC I ordered was already deteriorating on one side.

All in all, totally unsatisfied. What a waste of money. Gonna be strictly dealing with private purchases via the community from now on.
