I mean come on guys/gals, if you live in California, Florida, Texas, etc. there are abundant plants for your aquariums. Some are natural to the continent, some have been introduced--i.e., someone has dumped their aquarium in there and it has taken over. In California, millions are spent each year in attempts to eradicate these "weeds." Gessh, a lot of people employ themselves pulling these "weeds" out of the rivers and selling them to fish stores. Make it a family thing, go explore for new plants to add ... do the proper quarantine first, of course--before introducing them to you aquariums ... where do you think these plants originally came from? God had an aquarium and gave a seller some? <grin>
