Google is your friend.
Amazon Frogbit (limnobium laevigatum)

Depending on where you live it should be inexpensive since it grows easily. I got mine free from club members.

I've bought very nice plants from TPT (the planted tank forums)

 

[alia258]

I'll look forward to using PT forums ^^ I didn't see frogbit on that list, so I'm guessing the scientific names were the ones listed, so do you know frogbits scientific name?

I can't seem to PM h4n, are you sure that's the users name?

 

[Coursair]

Yes. Are you a member of TPT ? I believe you need to join. You could post to his sales thread and ask him to PM you. Don't post your email on public forum of course

 

[alia258]

Oh okay, I'll look on the thing ^^

 

[brunettebaby4571]

I love my frogbit. I ordered some from ebay for around like 5 bucks and I believe the shipping was like 3 bucks or so and it has grown like crazy in under 2 weeks!

 

[alia258]

Maybe I'll check eBay for some, if I can't find it cheap locally ^^

 

[Coursair]

It was towards the bottom of the list under floaters

"1 - Amazon frogbit floater - $3 per half sandwich bag"

His price is $3 +$7 for shipping and you could buy something else and combine shipping.

 

[Coursair]

Btw here is a list of clubs
Arizona

Drywash Aquarium Society (Phoenix)
Arizona Aquatic Plant Enthusiasts (Phoenix & Tucson planted tank club
Arizona Rivulin Keepers (killies) Tempe
Desert Aquarist Society (Tucson)

From herehttp://www.aquaworldaquarium.com/Local_Fish_Clubs.htm#Arizona

 

[alia258]

Thanks for the list, but I can't come to a club right now since I don't drive yet, I'm still 15 ^^;; I just signed up for TPT and found h4n, I'll tell you what happen from there ^^

I am 50 and don't have a car right now. The club members carpool with me. Just joining my club I learned so much.

One of my clubs meets at a restaurant, perhaps your family would take you if there was food involved ???

 

[alia258]

Haha no my family tries to not eat out, they're trying to set an example for saving money and bing smart with debt. Which, in the end, just makes me want to go to a restaurant more! Haha well I could maybe find an online club, but I guess that's what AA is, huh? Well, I'm waiting for h4n to reply to me about the frogbit, and I might just get him to come onto here! ^^

 

[alia258]

I have h4n and I'll probly be buying from him if I can't find some place cheaper (which I doubt) and he's a nice person, 25 plants for $3!
