I have searched aquabid, but thanks for the suggestion. I ordered plants there once, doubt if I will ever do it again. The person sent me the plants, which were in great condition... but they were packed in loose fiberglass insulation that I proceeded to get all over my floor when I opened the box, and I'm sure I likely inhaled some too. When I complained to her about that being hazardous she was shocked, told me nobody had ever complained before, and she didn't want or expect me to leave her a bad rating for it... Not sure how someone can argue and justify doing something like that, but it really made a mess of my first experience with aquabid, literally. I have also noticed that most of the things I see that I want on aquabid are from sellers in Thailand... so those things are just not an option for me.
Thanks again,
Dawn

You might wish to look at aquabid.com to see if any one has any there.
