Royal Tropical on Woodward just North of 11 Mile rd has the best selection of any local shops in this area. They have two main live plant tanks up front, then they also have some live plants in other tanks scattered throughout the shop so if you don't see what you want in the two main tanks just keep looking through all the store at the other tanks.

I have some giant hygrophila that's easy and grows like a weed. Let me know if you want some. Its coming out my ears.
I have about 18,000 rounds of .223 I'm  looking to get rid of, 100 rd bags. 1-4 bags $40 ea, 5-9 bags $38 ea, 10 or more bags $35 ea. I can't put this in the for sale section, its not fish related. No shipping.

No problem. I do want to make clear though they do not have a TON of plants like I am sure some other shops in other areas may have, but for the SE part of Mich they have probably the most of any shops I have seen outside of places like the big chain stores which tend to have a lot. I've never had much luck with plants from the chain store living very long though myself for some reason so I tend to buy from Royal.
