    Plant Sizes

    Just wanted to give you a heads up that the image of the plant you'll be receiving is just an example of what you can expect. Each plant is unique and may vary in size and shape, so it won't be an exact match to the photo. If we provide a size guide, keep in mind that it's just an estimate and that plants can vary in size depending on the time of year.

    Our Delivery Promise to you

    If you choose Express Delivery, we will replace any plants that are damaged due to delays. Express Delivery is a fast, trackable, and reliable option with a one hour delivery window. It also ensures that the plants will arrive in the same condition as when they left our facility. If you choose a different postage option, such as Tracked 24 or Tracked 48, you will not be covered for any damages due to delays and will assume the risk yourself if the plants do not arrive in good condition. Express Delivery includes an insurance policy, which may cost more but provides added peace of mind.

    

If you order before 4pm we dispatch the same working day (Mon-Fri). Shipping prices start at £4.99 depending on the speed of delivery required.

    Hygrophila siamensis 53B is a popular aquatic plant among aquarists and is often referred to as simply "Hygro 53B." This plant originates from Thailand and is a member of the Acanthaceae family. It is a fast-growing stem plant that can reach a height of up to 50 cm in ideal conditions.

    Hygro 53B has narrow, lance-shaped leaves that are green in color and can sometimes have a slightly reddish tint. The leaves grow alternately on the stem and have a slightly wavy edge. The plant's stem is thin and can range in color from green to reddish-brown. Hygro 53B is a very hardy plant that can tolerate a wide range of water parameters, making it an excellent choice for beginners.

    One of the reasons for Hygro 53B's popularity among aquarists is its ease of care. The plant does not require any special attention, and it can thrive in both low and high light conditions. However, it will grow more quickly and develop more vibrant colors when given higher levels of light. The plant can also tolerate a wide range of water temperatures and hardness levels.

    In addition to being a great plant for beginners, Hygro 53B also provides numerous benefits for aquarium inhabitants. The plant helps to maintain water quality by absorbing excess nutrients, such as nitrates, from the water. It also provides a natural habitat for fish and other aquatic creatures, allowing them to hide and explore.

    Overall, Hygrophila siamensis 53B is an excellent choice for aquarium enthusiasts of all levels. Its ease of care, hardiness, and numerous benefits make it a versatile and valuable addition to any aquatic environment.

    Your plants will be wrapped with recyclable Honey Comb wrap - sounds cool because it is :). It interlocks which means we don't need to use tape either, reducing our impact on the environment.

    Not only is delivery fast with DPD Express but it's also green as they offset all the carbon their vehicles produce. Guilt free delivery which we're very proud of...

    We guarantee you'll be happy with your order. But if you're not, please contact us so we can resolve. We are 100% here to help and will always do our best to resolve any issues - that's a promise.
