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.

How to Plant and Care for Tomatoes. Tomatoes run on warmth; plant in late spring and early summer except in zone 10, where they are a fall and winter crop. Devote a prime, sunny spot to growing tomatoes. Tomatoes need at least 6 to 8 hours of sun to bring out their best flavors. You will need to stake, trellis, or cage most tomato plants to keep them off the ground. Decide on a support plan before you set out your plants, then add that support directly after planting. Give each plant enough room to grow.
