- Delicate, small leaves
- Easy to grow
- Great cover for baby fish
Baby tears is known for its delicate, small, round leaves that add interesting textures and contrasts nicely against larger-leafed plants. This relatively easy-to-grow, medium light stem plant makes a great foreground to midground plant due to its smaller size. If left untrimmed, baby tears can grow up to a foot tall, so make sure to trim it often to encourage low, bushy growth.

Customer Reviews
The baby tears arrived looking a bit sad after their time in transit. Now after nearly two weeks in my tank, they have plenty of fresh new growth, and most of the leaves they arrived with have died away.
I received my order in 2 days and all plants came in great condition. I haven’t added them to my aquarium yet, but they all arrived live and packed very well.
Difficult to root and messy…leaves melt and float everywhere. Not my thing.
He baby tears do
well in my tank. Beautiful background plant.
I’m pretty disappointed in how this plant arrived. All stems were yellow and brown. I’m hopeful they’ll bounce back.
Ordered the baby tears when I opened the PKG it was mushy and no roots impossible to try to plant no more plant purchases online I love the food that I bought though my fish love it but plants no more for me
Very healthy looking plant. Great color
I had expected rooted plants, but the cuttings I got were in excellent condition. As I understand it stem plants root easily enough, and they seem to be doing well.
I was super impressed with the attention to detail and level of care; especially with the multiple layers of packaging. Each plant was in a rockwool pot, that was in its own moist fiber\cloth sleeve, that was inside of a water tight ziptop bag with a clear label of what was inside. All the plants were inside an insulated zip top bubble bag that was mindfully placed on top of my other heavier items. The heat pouch definitely saved my plants from the below freezing temperatures. They were a little cold, but all but one (a red dwarf lily bulb) arrived in excellent condition!
I was also impressed with the turnaround time for the order, and how quickly my order arrived. I ordered on a Monday and they had it ready to ship the same day. The carrier picked up the package on Tuesday and I had it on my doorstep Wednesday morning.
I’ve had many orders from Aquarium Coop that have been amazing. This is the only one so far where both plants arrived looking a little faded and iffy. My guess is that it’s mostly about delivery amidst a Chicago-area cold spell. They’re planted and we’ll see how they fare. Cautiously optimistic. But I’ve waited too long on every other order/review opportunity (all outstanding, btw), so I’m sending this one right away – Just as I’m about to order more from AC! And there it is. Even with this one wait-and-see situation here, I have every confidence in Aquarium Coop always. Thanks Cory, thanks AC!
Cool plant around drift wood
