    Check with pet masters, they normally get a big variety when they land a consignment

    Best place is at Benoni Aquarium & Pets, prices are much lower for the same products.

    They are on Howard Avenue. Not sure if we allowed to post specific store names on this forum. But you can give them a call. 011 421 8279

    Pet Masters is Le Grange?

    They are bit expensive.
    Wanted to buy java moss, was almost R70

    BUT i like buying accessories from them, and stuff like Prime.

    cheapest in the area.

    Also bought few guppies last Sunday. Did see dead fish before, but ja, find that almost everywhere.

    Theres also a nice place in Kempton, thats not too expensive, cant remember name though.

    Exotic Aquariums (Cason Rd & Trichardt Rd, Boksburg). Seem to have a decent range and sorted by small ,med and large plants at reasonable prices.
