I think we will have to start buying plants from each other 😂

Hang on that’s also forbidden due to Covid ... 🙈

I was hoping to get some plants from my local MA the other day when I went to stock up on frozen food and they didn't have anything that didn't look rotten. I just hope all of the fish shops make it through this.

Ebay is what I use when aquarium gardens dont have what I want. Can get some decent deals on there too.

Their website is rubbish, but if they're the first to get stock then I might be tempted to use them.

If you mean these https://www.horizonaquatics.co.uk/collections/plants

Then yes, click on plants and you have hardly any options to narrow down your search. Most sites at least break it down into background, foreground and midground plants along with other options.

I don't really have a lost of specific plants I want, just a set of requirements that they need to fulfill. I'd like to browse what they have more easily.

I can't find a filter other than the one that has "potted plants", "potted epiphyte" etc, I'm mostly looking for large plants. It's not always obvious from the pictures how big something is.

Don't get me wrong, I could find what I want on that site. It just takes more looking than I want to do.
