Goldfish, African cichlids, large plecos, and other fish that uproot or shred live plants leave plastic plants alone.

These are best used in freshwater or brackish setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo they tip over?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Weco weighted base is designed to keep plants upright on its own, but pressing the base partway into a layer of gravel or sand makes it absolutely rock-solid — even with strong filter flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I get rid of algae buildup?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLight algae rinses off in tank water during a water change. For stubborn green or black algae, soak in a 1:10 bleach-to-water solution for 90 seconds, rinse thoroughly under running water, then soak in dechlorinated water for 5 minutes before returning to the tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the colors fade?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWeco uses color-fast plastic, so the green and red tones hold up under aquarium lighting for years. Direct sunlight on a tank can fade any plant (live or artificial) faster, so keep tanks out of direct sun for best longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Weco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48660256817371,"sku":"WE00106","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0767\/5209\/3403\/files\/image_cac897fc-5ffe-45fa-b2c9-62b65875798d.png?v=1777054678","url":"https:\/\/squeakysaquatics.com\/products\/weco-freshwater-plants-multipack-106-artificial-aquarium-plants","provider":"Squeaky's Aquatics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
