Description

Originating from Asia the Microsorum pteropus is one of many different varieties of this species, each with their own leaf shape.

This plant is extremely undemanding and will grow best tied to rock or wood. Light isn't an issue as this plant will grow well in both low lighting and high lighting tanks.

No pesticides are ever used on our plants and they are safe for use with shrimp tanks.

Hi what price can you do on 30-40 plants if i were to order, as that price is a bit steep to buy in decent numbers

As you don't use pesticides as per a previous comment, is there a chance of having snail arrive on a plant? (it's not an issue if there is as I have some snail ravanous dwarf loaches, but just wanted to know)

Does the plant actually come in/with the pot?

Highly unlikely any snails on the plant as they’re kept out of water

Plant comes with pot

Depends. If you 100% don't want snails, then your only option is to choose tissue cultured plants. However, this plant isn't available in tissue culture form.

That said, this plant is kept above the water line which dramatically reduces any chance of pests like snails. It's not therefore a guarantee, but it's highly unlikely you'll have an issue.

Most likely but if you want a guarantee then you need to buy tissue cultured plants. That said, this plant isn't available in that format.
