I know PetsMart had them, that's where I bought mine. They are basically little lead strip if you can find some form a friend (roofer) hammer them flat and cut them. Lead is very soft metal.

They are like $1.99 for a pack of 10.

Can you PM a price for 10 or 20 including postage?

How do you attach the plants to these weights - fishing line or something of the ilk?

[neven]

best to use some sort of foam wrapping that has the roots folded through it

I went and got fish line, Im going drill through a rock with a mason bit and tie the plants too it. Might put a fertalizer substrate in where stems are to help out. The guy at the real shop gave me the fish line.

I think most of the strips you buy now are not lead but zinc any how , my own expeirence is not to use them, my java fern stopped growing , so i removed them all from my tanks.
