Hygrophila pinnatifida is a favorite plant commonly used in aquascaping and high tech aquariums. Its narrow, serrated leaves change from green to red under stronger lighting. It also has the unique flexibility to grow it either in the substrate or attached to rock or driftwood. This stem plant has a moderate growth rate and generally reaches 6–16 inches (15–40 cm) tall and 4–8 inches (10–20 cm) wide.
100% Free of Pests
Tissue culture plants are "lab-grown" at the farms by taking a tissue sample from an existing plant and growing it in a sterile nutrient medium. While tissue culture plants tend to be smaller and more expensive than potted plants, they are 100% free of snails, algae, and duckweed.
We Include Heat Packs and Liners Free of Charge
We have a custom-developed algorithm to include heat packs and insulating plant liners as needed, based on the weather forecast from our warehouse to your shipping address. This helps keep plants at stable temperatures, both in hot and cold weather. Other vendors typically charge you at checkout for a heat pack. We include them when needed free of charge because it's our job to deliver our plants to your door healthy.
Cups Protect Plants in Shipping
Tissue culture plants have been optimized for long term storage. From the day that they are cultured, these plants are designed to stay in cups for months. This makes them especially forgiving during transit when they are in a box on their way to your home.
I ordered 2 Hygrophila pinnatifida plants and only 1 arrived still alive,barely, but it may possibly come back.

Looked a little iffy when it arrived. Very brown & wilted to start. I wasn't sure how it would go. Planted it, & it continued to wilt. Figured it would melt back some before new growth started. Seems to have just melted away. It may bounce back, but doesn't look likely.

Nice growth!
I ordered multiple cultures hoping to split them up and make multiple plants from each. Of the 3 I ordered the Hygrophila was the only one I was afraid to break up into smaller pieces, BUT, it has sprouted tons of leaves and shown significant growth and I could break it up soon! Looks great crammed into the crevasse of a log! Did not regret this one!

Best customer service experience
Had an issue with the first order. Contacted customer service and I swear it was like 3 minutes after I sent my first email that I got shipping confirmation on the replacement. Probably the fastest customer service ever.

Great plant
Plant arrived happy and huge for a small culture cup. I split the plant into 4 decent sized plants. It is doing well 1 week in.

Plant arrived dead but was immediately replaced
I know, five stars when the plant I received was dead? That's because when I contacted Aquarium Co Op a week later, after trying to revive the plant, I contacted them on a Sunday morning and received a response within 15 minutes. I was asked to send a picture of the dead plant and when I did so a new order was immediately placed to replace the plant at no cost to me. That's about the best customer service I've ever seen and I will remain a loyal customer because of it.
