I am looking for some rock for aquascaping but my LFS sucks. Any ideas where I can get some?

Well I found some dragon stone on Aqua Essentials that should do the trick in case anyone else is looking.
OOps thought I had replied to this PaulI was going to say they had some rocks on Aqua essentials. I noticed them when I did and order recentlyI did a little search too, but only looked at one site. All sorts of stuff but looked like you had to order so many bits.
Yeah will order 10 to 15 Kg soon i think, had a chat to Richard on messenger so he will pick me some to aquascape with. Need to think about plants next.
That's good the PaulAre you just going to have a few species rather than lots of different ones?Would look much better that way
Yeah thinking I will probably have twisted vallis at the back, thinking about giving ech tenellus another go in the front as I will have proper substrate now. Any other suggestions?
I prefer dwarf sagittaria to the mini tenellus. Probably because the latter did nothing in our tank!You can also get micro sagittaria which will grow arcoss the substrate.Depends on the lighting of course for some low growing plants like glosso
Need lots of light for tennellus or glosso to thrive and do well - if not it will not spread at all.

Yeah might give the dwarf sagittaria a go as Jan suggested.
It seems to do well with nutrients at the roots too Paul
Ok the rocks are in and scaped I think how I want them. I need plant ideas now. Think I am still sold on dwarf sagitarria at the front but its mid and background ideas really. I have JBL aquabasis underneath the fine black gravel and will be adding a compact T5 36w to the hood so will be around 2 watts per gallon.
No suggestions on plants?
DarthPaul: No suggestions on plants?
what livestock do you plan to keep? This will help incase you have gravel diggers lol
Whats currently in my 120 so no diggers in that lot.
if i may paul.
i think you have too many rocks in there for a balanced look.
this is just my opinion of course but i thought i would put it forward.
