Live plants provide oxygen, but will use some of it at night or when the lights are out. It will help get rid of some nitrates. Fish can eat it. It can help you fight Algae if you have any problem with Algae, which likely at some point you have some sort of Algae in the tank. Plants are also used for hiding, although manly Fry (baby fish are called Fry) will be the only ones small enough to use it as cover.
They are little more work though. Fish may eat the plant or uproot it. You need to provide lighting and if you don't watch out the plants will come with Snails, which are very hard to get rid of.
Live plants provide extra O2 and use up the nitrates that can kill your fish. They provide an another food source for your fish and they look more natural than fake plants. It can help you fight algae if you have a problem with algae and provides fish with a natural hiding place
If you don't mind buying them all the time. My fish eat them.
Yes.
I take off the "pot" and plant them in the rocks, but I leave the paper stuff (they come with) around their roots.
I used to leave the pot on, I'm not sure which is better, On or Off.
Yes they are good for your tank. Thay give off oxygen which is what your fish need to survive..
live plants are good for fish if your fish lays eggs and other than that you will need to clean your tank more often.
