Perfect plant!
Honestly I’ve Nver had an issue so far. First bought 5 stands for my tadpoles and they seemed to really enjoy it! The second time I bought some (which was recently) is for my goldfish. They seem to love it too and helps a lot with oxygen. Not to also mention that they look beautiful in the tank too, nice and healthy. I was worried at first because I have shrimp in my tank, so I soaked them in baking soda for 24hours and then cleaned it with dechlorinated water and everything seems perfectly fine ☺️. However there was a sneaky snail that hitch hiked along but was easily spotted when I was cleaning the plants before adding them. Overall I do recommend these!

Good quality and growing well.
Arrived nicely packaged and is growing well in my tank. I've had to trim some of it back already. I didn't use the ceramic ring for weight, I just pushed some strands into the gravel at a slight angle (less likely to pull out) and it's working well. It's great for adding height to the back of the tank. Now to get some medium and small plants to add layers.

The tadpoles ate up the leaves - now probably dead ...
The tadpoles ate up the leaves - now probably dead plant. Seller is quick to deliver though but would have preferred ceramic weight instead of metal.

Avoid as totally not worth it.
The leaves turned brown in all but a couple of strands. I did contact the company and all I got a whole load of questions giving me the impression that they did not believe me even with the photographs. I have had aquariums for such a long time and know how to look after the plants. This was the first time I bought aquarium plants online, don't think I'll ever do it again.Reposting the review with additional comments as very upset that I have lost so many fish in both my tanks since i first introduced these plants. They started shedding leaves, turned brown and slimy. Took out all the plants, and fingers crossed my remaining fish survive. When asked for a refund, got nothing but attitude from the lady on the phone, saying nothing to do with their plants!!!! Obviously don't believe the customer!

Keeps growing !
We added this weed to an indoor goldfish tank. Even though it has no roots, it has grown a lot and almost taken over the tank (40l). Still it is just what we wanted and all local (pet) shops have closed. We were concerned about buying live weed by mail order but it was OK.

Fantastic Value Terrapin Food!
I have been ordering Elodea Densa from Lincolnshire Pond Plants for a couple of years now. I buy 3X10 strands (get one free - only pay for 2x10). I have to say the quality is brilliant - far far better than my local pet shops can do even in the height of summer. I thought we might have a problem when crispa oxigenating pond weed was banned, but no, my greedy 12 year old terrapin loves this diet supplement just as much. Thank you LPP. Very happy

You don't need many
So I only purchased 10 strands and in the time it's been in the pond it's quadrupled, my pond is like an elodea densa farm, helps to create nice hiding places for fish, helps with oxygenation.
