    Just started a FW planted tank and i'm looking to remove some of the plants I bought and replace with ones better suited my tiny tank ;)

    Does anyone have any of the above mosses in the JHB area that is willing to sell me some?

    Thanks!

    Matt

    Contact Dolphin from this forum he might be able to help you.
    There are other small plants you can use that is a lot cheaper than moss.

    Maybe you are lucky and somebody have some to spare.

    Thank you kindly Dirk! I might be heading out that way quite soon. Will be sure to give you a shout well before hand to try and organise a liason.

    Hi Darryn,

    Thanks for your concerns about me, but at the age of 55, I can handle youngsters such as Dale, in spite of threatened "liasons"....

    and Vis,

    what do you want me to send you, please send my a PM.

    Kind regards,

    Dirk
