My package arrived within the estimated delivery time. Everything was alive and as described even though it was shipped during freezing conditions. I would recommend this product and store.

I ordered three and they came out perfect. Very lush and green. Hopefully there's minimal melting. I recommend going for tissue culture since it has a strong root system rather than a pot.

Very healthy plants. Well packaged. Fast shipping.

The ease of planting and the sense of security that these plants were healthy and didn't come with any pests or unwanted stragglers is made this more than worth it.

most tubs came in looking great. The ones that didn't were replaced by the BP team really quickly. Excellent customer support. Unfortunately I wasn't able to keep them alive but that's on me. Had terrible melt.

All the plants I ordered arrived happy and healthy and acclimated well to my tanks. I was pleasantly surprised by the size of each of the plants too! Buce Plant never disappoints.

The plant arrived quickly and in perfect condition. It was my first time using tissue culture plants and the video on their site was very helpful.

Was a bit more brown than I would've liked, probably 70% useable. But once I got it cleaned up and planted, it's lovely

Very healthy plant but it fell apart immediately when putting in water floats if you don't sink it. . sink it it will fall apart.

I’d only buy this plant again if I was trying to find a reason to quit aquascaping. It’s practically impossible to get it to remain planted and it completely disintegrates into a million individual pieces. Every morning since I planted it in a new tank I wake up to a million little plant pieces floating at the surface of my tank as it uprooted itself and fell apart.

About this product
Product description
Common Names: Dwarf Baby Tears, Micranthemum Callitrichoides, Hemianthus Callitrichoides
Tissue culture plants are grown in vitro from a state of the art laboratory specialized in propagating aquatic plants.  They provide the best option for those who want to ensure that absolutely zero unwanted pests are introduced into the aquarium.  
Formally known as Hemianthus Callitrichoides, Micranthemum Callitrichoides is the epitome of carpet plants. This is one of the smallest aquatic plants available and just the right flora for creating that lush foreground seen in many stunning aquascapes. When grown in Iwagumi layouts, the vast fields of green can have a captivating effect on any audience.
This plant can grow submerged or emersed in dry start aquariums and Wabi Kusa.  Because this plant is small with tiny roots, it can prove difficult to keep planted into the substrate.  In this case, dry start can help by allowing time for the roots to anchor into the substrate before flooding the tank.
Although some have had success growing HC in smaller tanks using liquid carbon such as Excel, this species requires Co2 injection to truly thrive.  It can be quite difficult to grow lush, thick carpets for sustained periods of time without Co2, and fertilization is recommended. 
Remove tissue culture gel before planting.  Simply wash the gel away or soak the plant in water and squeeze the gel off with your fingers.  
Family Name: Scrophulariaceae
Origin: North America, Cuba
Height: 1-2”
pH: 6-7.5
Care: Medium to Difficult
Light: Medium to High
Co2: Required 
Propagation: Cut new growth along with roots
Growth rate: Moderate to Fast

What’s you’re go-to aquascaping tool? 👀 We like using the UNS Pinsettes during our planting process! However, when planting, we move the plant further in to alleviate the grip on the plants’ roots 🌱 This also allows the pinsettes to create a slot in the substrate for deeper planting, so our plants don’t float when we flood ✨ - #fyp #plantedtank #aquariumplants #fishkeeping

Have you ever kept Amano Shrimp before? We want to hear your experience with them 👇 These little critters are so fun to watch in our tanks and love to munch on the algae 😎 Iwagumi tanks are especially great for them with all the rock surfaces for the shrimp to explore. Just make sure to provide a stable environment to keep them happy and thriving! #amanoshrimp #petshrimp #freshwatershrimp #fishtank #shrimptank

What fish would you add to this tank? 🐠 We planted a UNS Dragon Bonsai using a mix of moss, stems, Java Ferns, & BUCE!

If you had to choose, which UNS 60U would you keep in your own space? 🌱 The UNS 60U is easily one of our most scaped tank sizes! Its size is perfect for a manageable maintenance routine while still giving our fish, shrimp, & plants room to grow and thrive ✨ #fishtanks #plantedtank #aquariumplants #aquaticplants #aquascape #aquascaping

Our UNS 45A Dual AIO is home to a TON of plants, each bringing its own unique textures, leaf shapes, heights, & colors to the scape 🌱  We use a mix of Buce along the stones in the foreground, followed by a variety of pink and red Ammania & Ludwigia stems. It’s finished off with taller Rotalas and Crypts.  #redaquariumplants #aquascaping #plantedtank #fyp #freshwateraquascape

Test Your Knowledge - Can you name any of the plants we used? 👀 We scaped this UNS 45A for 2 African Dwarf Frogs using 8 different types of plants 🌱 They were planted in layers to accent a simple Boutique Seiryu Stone layout and UNS Controsand Kona foreground. #fishtok #fyp #aquascape #plantedtank #fyp #bettafish #fishtank

What’s your favorite carpeting plant? 🌱 We love a thick, lush carpet, but understand achieving it can be challenging to some. Some critical factors require extra attention when growing a carpet. Be sure to make small adjustments at a time, ensure the plants receive good lighting, and, while not always necessary, consider adding CO2 😎 #aquascaping #aquascape #carpetingplants #aquariumcarpet #plantedaquarium

What do you do with your trimmings? ✂️ Many of you expressed wanting to see the Boutique Seiryu Stone in our UNS 60U again, so we finally got around to trimming it 😅 Then, we sorted out the healthy trimmings and replanted them in this tank, as well as others in the BP HQ so the plants aren’t wasted 🌱 #aquascape #aquariummaintenance #plantedtank #aquaticplants #aquariumplants

Do you disagree with any of the ratings? 👀 I could watch Aquario Neo Essence all day tbh ✨ Regardless of their clouds, each Aquario Conditioner helps in different ways! While we use Booster to lower our nitrate and ammonia levels, others like Neo V are specialized in providing our tanks with different minerals beneficial to our plants & fish 🐠 #aquariumwaterconditioner #aquariumkeeping #aquariumhobby #freshwateraquascape
