FAQs
Are these plants safe for goldfish?
Yes, they are made from non-toxic, fish-safe plastic and are suitable for goldfish tanks.
Do I need to bury the whole base?
For the best visual results and stability, it is recommended to bury the weighted base completely under your gravel or sand.
Can I use these in a saltwater tank?
Yes, the materials are durable enough to withstand the conditions of both freshwater and saltwater aquariums.
How often should I clean the artificial plants?
You should clean them whenever you notice a buildup of algae or debris, typically during your routine monthly maintenance.
Will these plants affect my water pH levels?
No, the high-quality plastic is inert and will not alter the pH or mineral content of your aquarium water.
How tall are these plants exactly?
Each plant in this set stands at approximately 10cm tall.
Troubleshooting
Plant keeps tipping over
Ensure the weighted base is pushed deep into the substrate; you can add extra gravel or a small rock over the base to provide additional stability.
Algae growth on the plastic
Remove the plant and scrub it in a bucket of aquarium water; ensure your light duration is not too long to prevent excessive algae bloom.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, simply rinse the plants under cool tap water to remove any dust from packaging. Place each plant firmly into your gravel or sand substrate, ensuring the weighted base is fully covered for a natural appearance. These plants are compatible with both freshwater and saltwater environments. To clean, remove the plants during your regular water change and use a soft-bristled brush or a dedicated aquarium scrub brush to gently wipe away any algae accumulation. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as residue may harm your fish.
