Default Local source for pond plants and fish?

I have a small pond that I'd like to stock. Can anyone recommend a
local (Apex/Cary/Holly Springs area) retailer who carries a variety of
good quality plants and fish?

Thanks!

I posed this question to a friend that has had a backyard
pond for a number of years. Here is her reply:

Cary Garden Center and Rake and Hoe in Raleigh were both
great, but I think
they've both closed. Cary Garden has definitely closed.
Does Fairview have
water plants? Actually, I've even bought water plants from
a guy at the
flea market. I'd recommend going there. As for fish, you
can spend lots of
money on koi or you can just get gold fish from K-Mart.
They'll live! ;-)
