Choosing Aquarium Plants - Care and maintenance of live aquatic plants is as challenging and enjoyable as fish keeping.
Adding plants to the aquarium will provide oxygen for the fish.
Plants contribute largely to keeping the water balance in the aquarium.

Aquarium plants will survive a fair amount of time if their roots are kept wet, so it should be possible to bag them with some water and set them aside for hand-moving.
Plastic plants are most easily maintained in a goldfish aquarium.
Plants you find growing wild will probably grow in your aquarium.

The fish and plants used in this type of aquarium are not necessarily species that would occur together in nature but they all come from similar habitats.
Aquarium plants play an active role in the tank's nitrogen cycle, but sometimes the water composition degrades into one that is not any longer highly beneficial to plants.
Some plants do not require additional fertilization and will grow simply by utilising these major nutrients that are already in the aquarium.
