Theresa_M Moderator Queen of Zoom Posts: 3649 Kudos: 4280 Votes: 790 Registered: 04-Jan-2004	I saw this for sale at Arizona Aquatic Gardens. Do you think the $30 they're asking is reasonable? Have you seen this type of thing available anywhere else, lfs or online? Thanks ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean

I personally wouldn't buy a $5 plant and $5-8 peice of driftwood for $30. Plus there's shipping, right? Critical Fertilator: The Micromanager of Macronutrients

Also, unless AZ Gardens has something special that you can't get anywhere else, this place http://www.aquariumgarden.com/ has similar prices (maybe a tad higher), but their shipping is much more reasonable.

Also, unless you just want one anubias on one little piece of wood, there isn't much you can do with it beyond plunking it in the tank as-is. I prefer having the flexibility to position things exactly the way I want them. Hoping that there must be a word for everything I mean...
