The Benefits of Adding a Simple Assortment of Plants to Your Aquarium

Transform Your Aquarium with Easy-to-Care-For Live Plants

Adding live plants to your aquarium offers a multitude of benefits for both the aquatic life within and those who admire your tank. Whether you’re a seasoned aquarist or just starting out, incorporating live plants like those in our Easy Aquarium Plant Package can instantly enhance the beauty and health of your aquarium.

Improve Water Quality

Live plants act as natural filters, absorbing harmful substances like ammonia and nitrates from the water. This helps maintain a cleaner and healthier environment for your fish, reducing the need for frequent water changes.

Create a Natural Habitat

Plants like Assorted Anubias and Java Ferns provide a more natural habitat for your fish, offering them hiding spots and reducing stress. This can lead to healthier, more active fish that display natural behaviors.

Java Fern provides natural coverage for all inhabitants, like this Juvenile Rainbow Shark. Feeling secure in their surroundings helps most fish and invertebrates feel at home.

Control Algae Growth

Plants such as Java Moss and Moneywort compete with algae for nutrients, helping to keep algae under control. This means less time spent cleaning algae from your tank and more time enjoying the view.

Moneywort is a beautiful bunch plant that is pleasing to the eye and looks amazing when fish interact with it.

 

Enhance Aesthetic Appeal

The lush greenery of plants like the Moneywort and Nano Marimo Moss Ball adds visual appeal, turning your aquarium into a vibrant underwater garden. These plants not only beautify your tank but also create a dynamic and ever-changing landscape.

Everyone knows that little freshwater invertebrates like these Neocaridina shrimp love to be around Marimo Moss Balls, not just for feeding, but also for exploring their natural behaviors around this amazing little algae ball.
