    Got about 5 plants with roots and sprout heads. These things grow very easily in aquariums. Will trade fir a few shrimp(Any kind) or Nerite snails.

    What colour shrimp are you looking for?
    Both those plants are blacklisted.

    I really don't mind what color. I Googled a bit and saw they were blacklisted, I bought the Plants from a pet store and they really don't label those things with "Black Listed"(What is up with that) . Just have a couple plants that I wanted to throw in the compost bin and figured someone might want them

    There are loads of plants that are blacklisted.
    I believe that as long as you are responsible with what you have, and don't allow it to get away from you, and refrain from dumping it in our waterways, you should be fine.

    I have Red Sakura and Blue Dream shrimp available.

    I think @Pezulu is planning on taking the mrs on a nice outing to picturesque Cullinan. Very nice of him, regardless :thumbup:
