    Timber City in Boksburg has bamboo in stock. Not sure of the exact diameter. Maybe try your local Timber City?

    If you don't mind me asking what are you going to use the bamboo for Kuhli Loach

    Bamboo in a Betta tank will look stunning.

    I'm assuming it's bamboo branches you want and not necessarily live bamboo? Not sure if bamboo will grow under water.

    Bamboo does grow immersed. I've seen it in setups before, but it grows extremely quickly!!

    Breeding tubes for the Whiptails and Ancistrus, looks much better in the tank that blue PVC pipe.
