Is keeping aquarium plants hard?
No, keeping aquarium plants is not hard as long as you choice suitable plant species. All aquarium plants need light, carbon dioxide and nutrients to live. If you have an aquarium with normal incandescent lighting or subdued fluorescent lights, stick to plants that have low light requirements, such as Java Fern. If you do not want to use carbon dioxide boosters, stick to plant species that will be satisfied with the amount of carbon dioxide that is produced by your fish. If you do not want to use fertilization, choose plant species that will absorb sufficient amounts of nutrients from the water. You can find plenty of suitable species by using the search function here at AC Tropical fish. Good fish shops can also recommend plant species suitable for your particular aquarium. Some plants have very exacting requirements when it comes to water temperature, pH-value, water hardiness etcetera while others are extremely adaptable.
