20 gal tank

[anton srsen]

I just put 5 new plants into my tank should I get oxygen bubbles going through ?

My plants

So are you wondering about not having enough oxygen in the tank?

 

[tyspot1000]

Are you meaning C02? I dont believe aquatic plants give off oxygen bubbles right off the bat.

Oh, Just a note, the plant with the long green and light green strips is not truly aquatic. Slowly, it will decay over time and bring ammonia in the aquarium. Just get it out and put it in a pot of soil.

 

[anton srsen]

Are they getting any without the bubbles

 

[anton srsen]

Will the plants use up a lot of the oxygen at night while there taking in oxygen ?

 

[tyspot1000]

They will take in oxygen but not any that will starve the fish of it. At night, the plants take in oxygen and produce carbon dioxide, then the process if reverse in at daytime. Nothing to worry about.

Again with the non aquatic plant ...does that danger my fish in any way

 

[tyspot1000]

If you dont take it out soon, it could decay and bring ammonia into the aquarium (toxic to fish)

 

[anton srsen]

How does the other plant look

 

[tyspot1000]

Looks good. As I can tell, it is aquatic.
