hi,

yes, absolutely!! how do ya think the first planted aquarium was made? lewl

as for killing parasites, dilute 1 part bleach into about 15-20 parts water. dip in and rinse.
 
i woudl qt the the plants first. fl has a lot of invasive spices of plants down there. i would do a 20 to 1 bleach dip and qt them.
