Hi folks,
I can't seem to find what I want in Durban - especially with regard to plants.
I'm not too picky either but some place that has a decent selection of tropical plants would be nice.
I'm specifically looking for some good ground-cover and cabomba right now but also looking for a female dwarf gourami among other things.
Lights are also high on my things to scout around for but I'm pretty limited in that my tank is a 60cm Koral by Juwel.
Maybe if you can point me to some nice shops - my frustrations would diminish.
Thanks,
cb

LOL! This is a first...

Um, I actually have no idea. Perhaps a Durban based forum member could help you in the right direction. firemanmuzz - Linga

azurekoi - could you possibly move this to the general section for me? Thanks.

Just found them Yesterday!
Must admit, from what I've heard, they're doing a good job of turning things around.
Fish volume was pretty high and quite a lot of fish that I haven't seen around.
Plants - probably the best in volume and variety I've seen lately - although the quality was so-so - but improving they tell me.
Tank selection was very nice.
Filtration and accessories - close to if not the best I've seen.
They carry Seachem products and will be expanding the range soon.
1 sick ground cover plant (Some grass) - not much else.
I'll be looking aggressively in about a month when my GroBeams arrive
