    Does anyone know where to get realistic lilly pads for a decent price. I ordered the one's from McKenzie and they look like my 3 year old made them and I paid $50 bucks...what a waste. Also I don't need any that are 15 - 18 inches in size, just something smi-small...6-7 inches.

    Suggestions??

    I ordered some of the AH1062 on page 749 and they were quite nice. Would certainly use them again.

    Did you order the package of ten? Those look kind of cheaply made, even in the small photo. The one fishmaster mentioned looks much nicer. It surprises me how the same supply company will have some habitat products that are really nice, and some that look like junk. The wholesale plant sellers have the same issue. Ordering them is always a gamble.

    I have several styles and sizes. I make them out of metal. And you can still flex them a little bit. What is your email? and I send you my info. Thanks Kelly Burt
