Plants Alive

[minnnt]

Just seen an advert in pfk for plants alive. Has anyone used them? Thinking of getting the 101 pack which is 15quid.

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks.

I've used them.They were ok, plants were healthy enough, not too small.Prefer planted tanks now, but nothing wrong with my order from plants alive.
good luck sorting the surplus pack

Thanks stu and chris. May give them a try

Planted tanks better then? In what way?

The comparison between the 2 is probably a little unfair i went for a mixture with 'Alive',when i first started out: and with more specific plants with 'Planted' now i know a bit more.

Both sent good healthy plants.I would use 'Alive' again, but 'Planted' always seem to send a bit more than i was expecting.

e.g.bought 3 Anubias received these.

i don't expect this all the time though

Guess it comes down to price, who you go with.

Thanks for the info Stu. I think i will try the Plants Alive and see whats what. For £15 101 plants is excellent, even if they're a bit smaller than lfs plants etc. Will be sharing out between a 180 and a 35 litre tank, so should be plenty. lol.
