I was wondering if anyone has anything to say about having live plants in the aquarium. Is it difficult to do? What would you recommend? IP: Logged |

Your in luck, I would not buy real plants because the plant food has metal in it and it can KILL your fish but fake plants don't need food and it saves you a lot of money. IP: Logged |

It is a great idea to have live plants in your tank! They take out carbon dixoide and put in oxygen. Some fish will live and eat around them. Good idea! They will look great! :-) IP: Logged |

My fish love their real plants. some of my fish are several years old and have always had plants. I think it is important to their health. as far as the plant fertilizer that you can buy for aquarium plants, I'm not sure if that is bad for your fish. it says on the bottle it is safe. Too many heavy metals will kill any living thing. I don't think in small doses it is necessarily bad. People often take multivitamins with iron in them, and it does them good, but if you take too much iron it is fatal.. same idea maybe? also, i wanted to add, that my plants have never needed bottled fertilizer. they grow more slowly, but I don't mind.

Fish-Lover, you are half right. When the lights are on they take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen, but when the lights are off they take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide. IP: Logged |
