Fake plants...

[Aj86]

I jus bought some fake plants from a craft store would they be able to be put in a tank?

im not sure but i think it would probably be safer to just buy fake plants from an lfs or petshop

They should be....as long as they dont have any exposed metal. I bought a lot of fake plants from a craft store and used them to arrange my own plant-scape. the only thing you have to worry about is if their is metal inside it. Even a small leak to allow water in will corrode the metal. I personally just didnt take the chance and bought only items with no metal

You can use aquarium safe silicone sealant to cover any exposed metal. Let it dry for at least 24 hours before putting it in your aquarium. Preferably 48. Follow the instructions on the package. Once the metal is covered with an aquarium sealant it will be safe in your aquarium.
