Plastic plants?
Is it safe to use plastic plants in a marine tank? I did a few years ago, and lost a lot of fish, but I now believe those losses were water-related and not due to the plastic plants. Any thoughts?

just make sure they dont have the metal weights in them and they should be fine.

cant think why you would want them, plastic plants do not have a place in a marine aquarium as far as im concerned, but im sure theres no danger in using them, just cant see why you would want to

They may not look authentic in a marine tank, but plastic plants do enhance the look and color of my FOWLR. They also hide the equipment in the tank, and give the fish more hiding places besides the rocks.
