Do you have a Japanese resaurant near you? Anyplace with a sushi bar is
bound to have nori by the ream... Have a meal, tell them about your
dilemma. Most are happy to sell you some.

Or, you can order online (I don't think your live plant experience will
carry over to a dried good like nori)

None near us. We have a large Mexican population and I can get anything
that community would buy.... but we have almost no Asian people here.

I heard of a restaurant supply house that supplies Chinese and Asian
eateries in Nashville I want to check out first. I was given the location
but they didn't know the name of the place. It's about 20 miles from
here........ They may even have something I'm interested in for myself.

=============================
I've always liked Hikari brand and would buy it when I saw it somewhere in
my travels. Another I like is the HBH soft pellets. The fish love them but I
can't find the real small size suitable for my bettas and smaller tetras.
All I found was a size suitable for small goldfish or cichlids. I'm eager to
see what this new store has and it's only 15 minutes from my house.

SHE RECOMENDS, like she is some kind of authority.hahahahahahaha


And you are Roy?
No. You have no more authority than I do. You have experience, the
same as I do.
That makes you no more of an "authority" than anyone else who posts
here.

The rest of your rant isn't even worth my time.

Shrimp pellets are a good all around food / treat that pretty well
most all fish will eat or pick at. I do find the ones made by Wardley
to have a much higher "strange" smell to them as compared to Tetra
brand or Top Fin (Petsmart house brand) as well as others like Hikari
etc......
==============================
I have the Wardly brand and it has a faint fishy aroma. Not a bad aroma at
all.
