You can go and pick them at Pasir Ris beach or near Kranji Dam. Free or charge. Never heard of anyone selling mangrove in Singapore.

Hope you are not using them for your tank cause they aren't that efficient. Tried them before but they grow so slowly that I gave up. Most reefer who tried them in US because Julian Sprung advocated it so much, have stopped and switched to something else.

I was careless once at Pasir Ris Beach (the escape theme park end) and walked out a metre into the mud at low tide to try to catch a hermit crab. Just a metre away from the squishy sand was pure mud and my feet sake right in till slightly above the knees. It was really difficult to get out (even with help) and I got a few cuts. Luckily my jabs were still effective that time!
