Vasalissa Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Hey, so We got everything ready to re-scape our tank and then realised a fatal flaw in our plan..... Aquagreen didn't have many plants in stock at the moment due to winter. Does anybody know another great place to get aquarium plants? Online or otherwise?

Leigh Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Fishchick !!!!!! they are a little bit expensive but the plants are always very high quality and healthy..... Bonus is they are in brissy and stock a large range of rare plants as well as all the common ones Liverpool creek aquariums are also good, but you have to wait for them to ship it to you.....

watfish Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) Hi, if you're after some of the more uncommon stem plants, I generally have cuttings available every week or two. But since I recently got rid of most of my stem plants and only kept a few specimens of my favorites, I can only provide 1-3 cuttings of each (pickup only, I don't post). Here's a list of the plants that I trim regularly: Rotala H'ra Persicaria Sao Paulo Didiplis diandra Ludwigia brevipes Eichhornia diversifolia Nesaea Triflora Echinodorus vesuvius (not a stem, but get runners sometimes) Myriophyllum mattogrosense ludwigia arcuata myriophyllum tuberculatum Limnophila brownii "Darwin River Ambulia" Limnophila aromatica Rotala Mini Type 2 Bacopa caroliniana Rotala vietnam mini Note that most of these generally require at least medium light and regular ferts, and do better with CO2.
