None of them are as good as members here or P.T.net

Pacific Aquarium in lower Manhattan is my favorite for planted tank needs.

thank you jonathan. actually, this store came up when i did a google search of fish shops in nyc. since, i have only limited time and can only afford to visit 1 shop aside from all the sightseeing and everything, i'll definitely go with this one.

thanks again. :)

hi jonathan, does that shop generally have a lot of stem plants for sale? because i am thinking of buying also online from aquariumplants.com. i am looking for some specific stem plants. or if anybody here in this forum sells, much better.

They do , but they are over priced and poor quality when compared to forum sellers. Aquariumplants is cheaper, but with more fragile stem plants, I would buy more than you need. They usually arrive in poor shape. I like to cut them short and recover.
