Plant ID's needed..

The plant with the white outline is non-aquatic. Hard to tell from the photos about the other plants.

OMG, every plant that I bought is on that list... :icon_cry:

And that was all they had there... :eek5:

PetCo? We have a local one that opened with in the past year and you'd be hard-pressed to find a true aquatic plant in their plant tank. I've made the same mistake too. Most of us have done it, just remember for next time and try to help other newbies. Hopefully you can take them back without hassle.

1 of the plants was from PetCo, and honestly, I expect that sort of thing from them, but the rest were from a LFS that is really good to me. I am positive they just don't know, but I will be sure to tell them, and I'm sure they won't be selling them anymore!

Where do most of you get your plants then? Online?

Anywhere you could point me to?

Thanks for all of your help!

They probably don't know, they just order them off the typical variety plant pack list that most pet stores get. You need a local LAPS not LFS. Most LAPS are around larger cities. Try swap and shop on this forum.

I agree with doug, the Swap and Shop forum is the best place to find great plants at an affordable price.
