Mail Order Plants



A general question: I am (relatively) new to the aquarium world,
and have only been at it for about four months.  I have two
aquaria, one 10 gallon one  30, both are planted and
both are doing reasonably well: little agae and plants
seem to grow with some slight failures.  I  have 
two community tanks, the smaller was an after
thought which I started in an attempt to keep
a sick fish alive but which now is the permanent
residence for my betta, four cardinal tetras, a botia loach
and a medium sized algae eater.  The larger tank has
angels (5), neon tetras, red-eye tetras, etc.  
For both tanks I am running a simple  yeast+sugar
system for CO2 and it seems to have helped.

QUESTION; HAS ANYONE BOUGHT AQUARIUM
PLANTS BY MAIL AND WHAT HAVE BEEN THE RESULTS?
HAVE THE PLANTS BEEN HEALTHY,  WERE YOU ABLE
TO HAVE THEM MAILED AT ANY TIME OF YEAR AND
ANY DISTANCE (I  LIVE IN NEW ENGLAND)?  Same
question concerning fish, especially angels, has
anyone bought them by mail?

Thanks
