Hi, I am trying to sell my aquarium but someone asked to buy the plants only and I don't know how much to ask for them.

I bought a drop checker but it never works really. I...
No it's not, I scrubbed it of the suction cups a few days ago and it seems to have stopped coming back.
However, on the algae point, This same plant has been dying shedding leaves for a while and now it's gotten worse. I am not sure what to make of it. Is it the plant leaves rotting away or is...
