That was how much my local Petsmart wants for a small bunch of Java
Fern. Are they crazy or do aquatic plants really cost that much?

I've seen Java fern at one local pet store at 3 for $5, but another store a
few miles away sells them for $3.95 each. Shop around, and you will probably
find a better price. Or if there is an aquarium club in your area, at least
one member is likely to have some for sale or to give away.

My java ferns do so well I sell or give away about 8-10 bunches a year. It's
very hardy, and most fish won't bother it.
