The Planted Tank

A planted tank is an aquarium that features live aquatic plants alongside fish and other aquatic creatures. These plants provide natural filtration, oxygenate the water, and create a more realistic and healthy environment. Maintaining a planted tank involves managing lighting, nutrients, and CO2 levels to promote healthy plant growth. It offers aesthetic appeal and environmental benefits, supporting a balanced ecosystem within the aquarium. Proper care ensures the plants thrive, reducing algae and improving water quality, resulting in a more sustainable and visually appealing aquatic habitat.
