1st Buce Plant order, trying more plants new to me

[@JonVlogs123]

Nice order! 😎👍

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thank you, Jon, and thanks for watching, I appreciate it! 😊

[@bipolaraquatics]

Great unboxing ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thank you and thanks for watching, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@jackanddan]

They pack this up real nice Tara! Nice when us fish tubers can give each other ideas for sure! We hope you’re having the happiest of New Year’s!

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks Dan! Yeah I've been admiring the cardamine in Larry's tank for quite some time. It may not do well for me though, I have some updates on these coming soon. My videos tend to be delayed from real time by a week or two. Thanks so much for watching and I hope you're having a great 2024 too so far! 😊

[@aquariumdelirium]

That hardware map was cool it did look like a dragon Can’t wait for the planting video Tara 🤗👍

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks Mal! There's a map for the UK, too. I find it really useful to figure out how the plants I order might do for me. Roughly where these are from, there's light blue, red, and white, so it could go either way, but for $9.50 shipping I wanted to give them a shot. Thanks so much for watching, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@madcat61207]

These new plants are going to be so much fun!😾✌️

[@TarasTankFriends]

We'll see, lol 😅🤞🤞. Thanks so much for watching, Madcat, I appreciate it! 😊

[@SkullAquatics]

They should look great in your tank 👍👍👍

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thank you very much, Curtis! Thanks for watching, I appreciate it and hope you have a nice weekend! 😊

[@pattys_aquatics]

Those look like some nice plants. Excited to see how they do😁👍

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks so much, Patty, and thank you for watching, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@DanielKeepingFish]

A box of new plants, it's like Christmas again! Will look forward to the planting video and seeing how the Dutch scape is coming along.

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks, Daniel, I hope to have the planting video up this coming week, (I'm editing down 2hrs of rambling on 😅). Thank you as always for watching and commenting, I really do appreciate it! 😊

[@stubbsaquatics6080]

Great vid. Very cool that they text you when it's at door. Always exciting and nerve racking acking adding new plants you have never grown. Nice shout out to Larry

[@TarasTankFriends]

You're so right about it being exciting and nerve wracking at the same time! I still do prefer to buy in person, but couldn't find these locally. Fingers crossed they'll adjust ok. Thanks so much for watching, I know unboxings aren't really your thing, but really appreciate it very much! 😊

[@stubbsaquatics6080]

@@TarasTankFriends I would not miss a video of yours

Aahahahaha The United States Dragon of Super Hard Water! The really does look like one too!

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks! 🐲😁 Thanks so much for watching and your support, too, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@IndoorEcosystem]

@@TarasTankFriends No problem ☺Your plant collection is coming along nicely!

[@redlaser1656]

I'm looking forward to seeing the plants in a tank. If it takes some time to die back, that is understandable. Always enjoy the aquatic plant content.

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks so much, Gord! Right now the planting video is about 2 hours of footage of me rambling on that I need to cut way down 😋, so it'll take me a while to edit, but I'm hoping to have it out next week! Thanks so much for watching and your contiunued support, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@Gilsfishroom]

Nice Your Highness. I like that the plants were packaged individually and labelled. I ordered online and received a bag of similar looking plants all mixed in together.

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks Gil! Now I'm just hoping they'll adjust ok. Oh wow, that seems careless/sloppy 😬. I've only ordered from 3 companies now, but they've all separated out the plants. Hope you're doing well and thanks so much for watching, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@TarasTankFriends]

Hello everyone, this is not sponsored, I'm just trying a company that's new to me. Thanks for watching!

[@Bottom_of_the_Chat-w-MikeB]

Yeah a series!! Great videos!!!

[@TarasTankFriends]

This series is taking a looong time, lol, lots of trial and error 😅. Thanks so much for watching, I appreciate it! 😊

[@fishismyhobbyofficial]

buce is one of my dream plants for my aquarium, like 20

[@TarasTankFriends]

It's so beautiful! Very expensive here though, so I only have a little bit of it. It's definitely one of my favorite plants though. Thanks for watching and commenting, I appreciate it! 😊

[@Tinkertwelve]

Nice!

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thank you and thanks so much for watching! 😊

[@garageaquatics2023]

Nice review, Tara. I guess they're not too far from me. Oh, and very cool map, and thanks for the link. It's true too. Some vendors really gouge on shipping and handling. Something I like to keep in mind. Have you done a follow up on these plants? Or did I just miss it? Thanks for the share! ~Ron

[@TarasTankFriends]

Thanks Ron! I do have a couple other videos on these, but long story short, all I have left of this order is 2 tiny cardamines. There was some kind of rot on the cyperus helferi that smelled bad and spread to some healthy hygrophilas and bacopa that were touching it. I cut out all the rotted stems and seem to have saved those. I've had much better luck ordering from 2 different places before, Aquarium Plants and Aquatic Arts, but they both charge a lot more, about 3x, for shipping. I think it'll be worth it for me in the future. Oh well, live and learn. Thanks for watching, I really appreciate it! 😊

[@garageaquatics2023]

My pleasure, @@TarasTankFriends . I've found some neat plants and ofter more fair shipping prices on Amazon. A few of the vendors I've revisited as well. Might be worth a look.

[@TarasTankFriends]

@@garageaquatics2023 good suggestion, thanks Ron!

[@Greg.is.a.bot.]

Good video! It'd be great if the plants did well so that you felt like you had an additional viable source available.

[@TarasTankFriends]

It would be nice, especially because of their shipping rates, but we'll see. Thanks for watching ❣️

[@aquariumdelirium]

First

[@TarasTankFriends]

You and Jeff have both claimed first, so you will have to take turns sharing your medal, lol 🥇

[@Gilsfishroom]

12th. 😢

[@aquariumdelirium]

I think Tara needs to check the photo finish 😂

[@aquariumdelirium]

Tara’s just being kind to you Jeff Second place is nothing to be ashamed over it’ll make you stronger for the next time 😂

[@Gilsfishroom]

@aquariumdelirium second place. AKA first loser.
