Adding live plants in your aquarium helps recreate a natural ecosystem, and may be one of the most beneficial ways to keep your fish healthy. Plants provide shelter and security for the fish. Because they compete with algae for nutrients, they can help to reduce algae growth. Live plants enhance the appearance and provide a much more natural environment for the fish. By improving water quality and reducing stress, live plants are a great way to improve your fishes' health.

Start this off during the first week of May 2016 by placing the plants in a protected position outside during the day for a couple of hours at first.
