Besides the Swan n Shop on here, I hear http://www.aquariumplants.com/Default.asp is good.

Aquabid.com has some good plant packages and deals at good prices... The best option I would say though is here. Go to the SnS (swap n shop) and post a WTB (want to buy) thread for those plants. They are usually in better shape than other sources. You tend to get more, they are generally cheaper, and the people on here almost alwasy have what you are looking for. They ship more reliably and faster too.

Several of those are very common plants that can also be found in petstores most of the time. I'd recommend avoiding cherry hedge unless you're looking to use it as a house plant. It is not a true aquatic.

www.sweetaquatics.com is very good imo.

thanks! if i was to use Swap and Shop how would that work? how do i pay and recieve and know that its not a scam 0.o

Pretty much everyone here takes PayPal as a payment. If you want to check the seller's reputation, look at their iTrader rating. It's under their avatar.

Aquariumplants.com is decent, although they once shipped me the wrong plant in a very large order and didn't follow through on their promise to send me the correct one. Caution!

Bump...

Anyone have advice on buying plants online or on eBay. I'm looking for sites or sellers you would recommend.

I just came back from a trip to Houston and ended up with two terrarium plants.😡 I know my bad... But I was in a rush.. the kids were asleep and the wife was sunburned in the car.. But they don't have any aquarium plants in college station.. I just ran in and picked whatever was under water and looked nice. What are the odds I'd pick two terrarium species? Bummer.

I just ordered a bunch of plants from www.aquariumplants.com and all were received in very healthy condition.

Bob's Tropical Plants is located in California and I have always had great service when I bought stuff from him.

The shipping rates seeem to high.

 

[Isujustice05]

I suppose it just all depends on how much you order and how fast. I spent 105the and did second day air which cost me 3.99......so for me it was a GREAT rate......Prolly not the best for overnight orders u der $50

+1. You also support fellow hobbyist with your purchased.

the Swap and Shop here on the forums is all I use, that and LFS's, no questions asked though that the SNS is by far the best place to get ANY plant
