I buy a lot of plants on eBay. If you shop around you can find some good deals.

You can find some nice plants on the classified section here or peabodys paradise.com has a good selection. Shipping will most likely cost somewhere around $7-9 wherever you buy.

I have to agree classifides here are really good. If you post what you are looking for there is a good chance someone has it! Plant packages are pretty common too

Buying Plants
Hello Fish...
I get my plants from alphaprobreeders. Ron McGee has been very helpful to me.

I got the plants yesterday and they look great. He even threw in some extras. They also called me confirming when they should have arrived. Defiantly recommend.

Peabody's Paradise is awesome, and also the classified section on ThePlantedTank. Just familiarize yourself with the search function and their Want to Buy ( WTB) section.

The planted tank forum has a random act of kindness RAOK, where they give away plants. Sometimes completely free, sometimes pay for shipping.
