Exclamation Lots plants for cheap (East TN)

I am overrun by plants in my tanks, need room therefore to further financially support my addiction :

About 30 Stems Pennywort (give or take) ranging in size up to 40 inch
Retail price would be ~$35 and be about 1/4 of the size mine are all I am asking is $10 plus shipping cost (or pick up in East TN); see picture 2-4 below

About 20 Stems Rotala Indica (give or take) ranging in size up to 20 inch
Retail price would be ~$15 and be about 1/4 of the size mine are all I am asking is $6 plus shipping cost (or pick up in East TN); see first picture below

If you want just some or both bunches together in one go please let me know and I'll work on the price for ya.

If you would like any other little plant seeding from any other plants in my tanks (see Aquarium Log) please let me know (Java Fern, Ludwigia, Vallis yaddy ya) . Also if you like Pond snails or MTS or Duckweed please let me know.

Here's the tanks its coming from, disease free and plants will be washed free of any possible snail / Duckweed http://www.fishtanks.net/fishtank.php?fishtank=1411 http://www.fishtanks.net/fishtank.php?fishtank=1412

I don't know. I'm beginnig to question Sweet Aquatics. I placed my order last Tuesday (a week ago now) and haven't even heard back from them onwhen they will ship. Thei website now states that it can take up to 10 days to ship your order, and they don't offer free shipping anymore. I might be coming to you for plants afterall!!

Do you dose with any ferts or co2 or anything?

I would love to get some of the Rotala Indica for my tanks, they're all around mid-70s, with normal lighting, but I don't use any fertilizers, or have co2 set up, so I'm not sure if it would do well.

If it would be able to survive, any estimate on shipping to 01001, and do you have more than just one bunch of 20ish stems?

Rotala will do fine w/out ferts and Co2. With high lighting the ends will turn pink from my experience.

Awesome, I think I have medium lighting, it's enough that my bacopa Java Fern and Java Moss all seem to do well, so hopefully this stuff would do good too.

Always trying to find cheap plants to fill up my tanks.

In general most plants don't REQUIRE ferts or Co2, it will speed growing along. The most important thing is to find a balance. Your setup sounds ideal to do a low tech planted tank. Do some google searches on it.

Castro: All my tanks run with low light, no ferts, no co2 nadda - I just use water & fish and it works just fine (Ask spoot he took all my plants so far but now he can't have any more).

So from what you're telling me there it'll do just fine if you'd still want it and lemme know if you'd like any other small one's?

Ideally I'd like to get as much as I can!

It's hard to find cheap plants, even Java Moss and fern seem to be expensive to get ahold of lol, noone around here has em.

Do you have more than the one bunch of 20ish stems?

I'd love to get two bunches if possible to spread around my tanks.

Any clue of shipping costs to 01001?
