Wow! I’m super happy with this product. I got the idea from Fish Shop Matt on YouTube, and so far, so good. It’s now in its third week in my planted tank, and the plants are growing really nicely. The tank is a 200-litre glass aquarium with a height of 50 cm. This is the full stack planted in the tank — a super cool product. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It’s very cool, well made, and easy to use. I would have had better success the first time if I hadn’t used only stem plants, but I can try again — and at £11.99, that’s the beauty of it. I love the verticality of these planters; it’s so hard to find modular, tall décor for tanks. Verified purchase. Very pleased with my purchase.
“This is a very nice and very different way of aquascaping. As the plants grow, they soak up nitrates and compete with algae, which can reduce maintenance and improve water quality. It’s a new and exciting way to display plants, providing cover, security, and a safe haven for fish, shrimp, and even spawning fry. Bettas in particular are going to love these. Yeah, I’m in.”

“If you’ve followed the channel for any length of time, you’ll know I’m a big champion of things like terracotta pots in aquariums, they’re great for rescaping and housing beneficial bacteria. But they can be unsightly and messy. If that’s the horse and cart, then this is the Ferrari. Habistax is a huge step forward.”
“What this allows you to do is plant vertically. Instead of gluing plants like Java fern or Anubias onto rocks and wood, you can fill the centre tower with aquasoil and plant almost anything directly into it, letting plants grow vertically. It’s paving a completely new way to aquascape, and it’s incredibly easy to use.”

“This might be one of the coolest new products to hit the aquarium industry in a long time. Habistax is a modular planting system that lets you take advantage of the full height of your aquarium, and it looks awesome.”
“Habistax is great! It Boosts biological filtration, reduces maintenance, and is fully modular and versatile across any setup.”
Somerset Shrimp Shack
“Habistax is such a good product. It’s incredibly quick and easy to use, and if you’re short on time but still want something that looks great, this is perfect. Once it grows in, it’s going to look phenomenal. Overall, it’s a really cool product, simple, effective, and I can’t wait to see how it looks in a few weeks.”
