Please do a guide of how to prop up these plants on top of the aquarium

Good to see more fish keepers using HOUSEPLANTS in Fish tanks! Love your channel

[tannersimonson]

I do this with mint and basil cuttings. One of these days I’ll make some kind of floating tray and try to grow aquaponic lettuce

Some bonsai wire is great way to place your plants in the water. 4mm is stiff enough to make a holder and pliable enough to do it by hand.

I love the peace Lilly in my tank... the root system get HUGE and the fish love it swinging through it and using the roots as cover

I have pothos and peace Lilly in my aquariums and since they established the water quality is much better! One of the peace lillies is growing on a piece of wood, which looks really good as a centerpiece. Also the roots kinda create a jungle vibe and give all the baby fish a great place to hide.

Thank you so much!! I house a house full of most of these plants, I never knew I could incorporate them with my tanks!! Beautiful ❤❤

I love using houseplants as additional filters! Syngoniums and Pothos are the best for smaller tanks, but Monstera Deliciousa is a beast at removing nitrates in big tanks!

Philodendrons are great and come in so many colors now. A word of caution, for those that don't know the leaves (only the leaves) are poisonous, their toxicity will not affect your fish as long as the leaves are kept out of the aquarium.

they are very cheap in Pakistan now i am gonna use all these plants thank you😍😍

I am currently growing nasturtiums in my cold water aquarium. I prefer this plant because it is non toxic to cats.
The nasturtiums was a self set in a pot next to the aquarium. Its grown over and into the aquarium with roots growing down to the bottom third of the tank. Fingers crossed it will flower 🌼

You are a true inspiration to both professional, and amateur aquarists. Keep up the good work!

Houseplants literally saved our lives! All of our plants except the submerged plants started dying this winter. Some were 30 years old and some were brand new. One day I noticed that the plants in the guest bedroom were fine. The only difference was that we had closed off the heating vent. I called a local company, three weeks later they showed up and I heard the guy scream " Open all the God damn windows!" 😂 so a new furnace later he told me that it had been leaking a poisonous gas for at least a year and we should be dead. They refused to leave until it was done.

So good, really changes the feel of the whole room.

Dwarf water lettuce does this for me .. one or 2 in there and within 2 weeks surface is full of them .. I just pass them on to the shop and he gives them to customers with newer tanks to help

[BossAquatics]

I use house plants in all my tanks. Definitely makes a big difference. Great video bro!

I’m already an avid houseplant enthusiast, with probably 50 houseplants in my 400 square foot house. I’m now in the process of setting up my first ever aquarium and I want to do a low-tech, heavily planted tank with cuttings from my houseplants helping to filter. I already have most of the plants you have so it’ll be easy. :) I’m so happy I found your channel!

[rubinax]

Great video!! Let’s add some kitchen ingredients to the list too. Sweet potato grows wonderfully in a tank. It creates very dense floating roots and beautiful heart-shaped leaves.
