Aquarium plants

Aquarium plants are live aquatic plants used in freshwater tanks to enhance aesthetics, improve water quality, and create natural habitats for fish and invertebrates. They absorb nitrates, provide oxygen, and offer shelter for tank inhabitants, helping to reduce stress and encourage natural behaviour. Suitable for beginners and advanced aquascapers, plants range from easy low-light species to high-demand carpeting and stem plants. Success depends on proper lighting, nutrient availability, and substrate choice. Regular trimming, fertilisation, and CO₂ supplementation (for advanced setups) support healthy, vibrant growth and a balanced ecosystem.
