Better than expected!
By JesseJames on Apr 26, 2020
When buying this plant I was worried about it looking cheap and fake in my turtle tank. After getting it and putting it in my tank i am surprised on how well it looks! My tank theme is going for a natural River bottom look for my painted turtle, and I have to say this silk plant helps to making the tank look more natural and authentic.

Bigger than I thought
By Lily on May 2, 2020
This plant was a decent size for the price point. Perfect to go in my 10 gallon betta tank with my other plants. I believe it would also look nice among a selection of plants in a larger tank. Looks realistic compared to other fake plants.

Great for the price!
By Sophie on Apr 7, 2020
I ordered 3 of these for my 10gal tank. Unlike some other reviews, mine haven't broken at all, or at least not yet haha. They look decently real and I like the look of them a lot. The only small downside is that the different stems go off in different directions and there's not much you can do to bend or redirect them, but overall I think they're a fantastic silk plant, especially for the low price!

Excellent plant
By RobA on May 30, 2020
These silk plants are the way to go. Real looking plants without the damaging sharp edges of plastic that hurt our finned friends scales and eyes and without the extra maintenance of real plants.

Great price!
By Teiah on Mar 14, 2020
I would give this item 5-star but I've had it in my freshwater tank with 4 fish (including a plecosomas) for just 4months and the tips of the plant has progressively gotten blacker&blacker. I thought I had done something wrong with my tank, but now believe it could be the material, or just natural build up. -Not bad for the price, would buy again.

Awesome decor
By Lazzz3 on Apr 21, 2020
My fish loved the plant, and I loved that it didn’t hurt him. It was soft so that it doesn’t hurt his big fins whenever he tries to hide in it.

Fish love it!
By Niny97 on Mar 5, 2020
When I pulled this out of the box I LOL! But my fish love the leaves. The veins are made with hard plastic but the leaves are soft. I wish it came in a larger size. Buy a couple for this price. Looks real in tank.

Silk Aquarium Plant
By Vickie on Feb 19, 2020 Top 250 Contributor
Leaves were off both plants when I took them out of box but decided to use them anyway. Had to take them out of my aquarium a couple of days later because more leaves were coming off and they didn't look good.

One of the best fake plant options out there
By JaqR on Jan 15, 2020
I bought this for a tank that I ended up breaking down shortly after setting it up. It looked good in the tank, though, and was soft enough for a betta. Now it’s in my beetle tank, where it still looks great and they seem to be enjoying it.

Betta fish loves it
By ERVetTech on Apr 30, 2020
Not quite as big as I expected, but my betta fish really loves it regardless.
