Plants in Eastern Cape, Kirkwood

Want to start my own planted tank. I have everything needed except the plants. I live in Kirkwood so my nearest large city would be Port Elizabeth. Can anybody help with where I can purchase plants from ?

 

Try one of the sponsors on the forum - they will gladly help you out

 

With all due respect... that's not much help considering you need 10 posts before you CAN pm anyone!
I'm hoping someone pm'd more helpful info.
@Amnethyst I've sent you a pm. Hope it helps a bit!

 

Post a request in the sponsors request forum.....

 

Can try send a small amount of java moss through post if your interested.

 

Firefly, anything is welcome. Please advise on the costs for the plants and postage.

 

Will go to post office on Mon to check limits

 

Bit of moss in a bank baggie - slip into envelope and should just cost you standard postage... Done it before and worked fine... even on less hardy stuff... Cost of a postage stamp and envolope...lol

 

Was thinking of something like that. Still going to check out prices on boxes because I have lots of Echinodorus horizontalis.

 

Please pop me some in that bank baggie and post off to me at

What can I do for you in return

 

Nothing at the moment. Consider it as an experiment.

 

Worthy experiment then. Thank you very much

 

Hi Amnethyst,

I will be trimming some hornwort when I get back from my trip to Pretoria (leaving 3rd, returning 11th), you are welcome to have some if you can hold out that long. If you are planning a trip to PE on the 2nd or before midday on the 3rd I can do a quick trim for you.

Let me know.

Regards
Eugene

 

Unfortunately not going to PE before 16th. I will definately take some of those trimming from you. Costs involved ?

 

Costs involved? Only fuel to come fetch it

I will also have some juvenile leopard danios that I need to find a home for. Let me know if you are interrested.

 

I have a spare tank that I am currently fitting out that I can use for those leopards. I'll give them a home.

 

Well I posted it today. Sorry it took so long to get it done. Package includes: Java Moss, Hornwort, 2Amazons, Indian Fern. Sorry about the amounts but it's something.

 

These are far more than expected Firefly. Thanks a million bro.

 

Not much in the bags though. Let me know when you get them.

 

This is what I LOVE about this Forum - a new guy joined and gets helped out quick-quick... +1 to you @Firefly ...

While back joined a international forum and asked their moderators to remove my subscription after a week when NO ONE even said hi to my introductory post... Wrote them a lekker snotty reply to how unfriendly they all are - THEN the reply's started pouring in flaming me... Not one said hi though... Long live TASA!!!
