End up, plants died and lfs blamed by the customers said they selling lousy plants or dying plants.

I do give, exchange or sell my plants to YT, Fish Paradise and Atlantic Safari most of the time. Don't expecting them will buy in high price. Most of the time i just give away. Didn't ask for money. And they will give you discount when you want something from them.

Can you imagine YT cut all of his Rotala green and MM from his display tank and sell to me cheap? I believe they will remember you once you offering them some good stuff. Karma is there all the time.
I also give the LFSes plants. I chose not to reveal the names of the Lfs so as to protect their interest. Sometimes, I have extra, I'll give like mosses and bolbitis. Last time gave them emersed one they don't want so end up now I sell myself.

I give people but I don't like to announce it if not why you think i can get good prices from LFSes. Anyway, this is a never ending debate, some of you thought we never offer LFS but actually we did and continuously do so. At the same time, I also sell to members the emersed ones and things LFS may not want to carry because it could be expensive for them to sell.

Don't do much LFS hopping nowadays, probably going through a cycle. Never been to atlantic or fish paradise. Last time every new shop also I will be there to see what they have, now like no mood to drive there and check.
