Does anyone know where to buy mesh pots? The kind you get aquatic plants with? I have hundreds and hundreds of new shootings on my fish tank plants and am hoping to replant some of them. Thanks!

Wouldn't the places that sell aquatic plants sell them??

I would have thought that the places that sell the fish would sell them and I don't mean fishmongers.

Doc, What about using hanging baskets or making some and line them. or raid te supermarket for plastic crates (like you can get mushroons in).

If you need such a large number maybe try a wholesalers?

Have you tried asking an aquatic centre where they would advise you to get them? I am sure I have seen them in aquatic centres in the past, can't remember where now though. ann glos
