Moss Tank
Most suitable plants for your fish tank
Generally, plants which are meant for fish tank are classified according to their "behavior." That is:
* Can they stay rooted?
* Whether they are bunches that roam around in water, or
* Do they prefer to hover on the top?
While placing a plant inside your fish tank you must be careful not to place any household plants in it. This is because they are not water plants and therefore are not suitable for underwater life.
Plants for your Tank
You will keep real plants inside your fish tank due to a number of reasons. The following are the advantages:
* Real plants aid in reducing carbon dioxide inside the tank.
* They aid in reducing the nitrate level in the aquarium water.
* They provide more oxygen to the aquarium water.
* They also play the role of natural food source for fish.
* Real plants can control algae growth.
Disadvantage of having living plants in your fish tank
Everything has good as well as bad sides. Aquarium plants are also no exceptions. The cons of having living plants inside your aquarium are:
* having a living plant inside your tank increases your task. You need to keep it alive along with your fish. You will have to nurture it and look after it.
* Keeping living plants require more maintenance time. You will have to trim dead leaves.
* Real plants may need replacement because they won't last for long.
* Living plants will need more lighting compared to your fish.
* Living plants also create waste when they are dead and this can have adverse effect on your water quality.
* Plants also pose the danger of introducing snails, some unwelcome fish, and even hydras.
* Real plants can also be the bearers of diseases which can be transmitted to your fish.
* If you have real plants inside your fish tank you will have to keep suitable substrates
So, you can see that it can be tough decision for the fish keeper to make a choice regarding whether to have live plants or not.
Most Popular Freshwater Plants
If you have decided that you will incorporate real plants in your fish tank, the following list will help you to decide which plans to buy for freshwater aquariums:
Java fern, Java moss, Crypts, Valersia, Water Sprite, Hygrophila polysperma, Anubias, Duckweed
Why do I need plants in my tank?
If you are wondering whether to incorporate real plants or to go for manufactured plants, you should remember that no matter what you decide, having plants inside your aquarium is of great benefit:
* Plants inside an aquarium contribute greatly in giving the tank a natural habitat.
* Plants also offer a sense of physical security to your fish. Apart from that the plants inside the tank provide a resting place for the fish and are also an ideal place for newly arrived fish to hide.
* Plants in your aquarium offer a natural habitat for fry

can i put moss into a one gallon fish tank?
I have a betta in one and 6 goldfish in the other.The tanks are just for feeding.
True the feeding tank is small but what about if I test it first in a diffrent tank to see if it will die and if it dies how long it lasts would that be a good thing to do before I try putting it in the actual fish ank or feeding tank???Thanks for answering!!!
What do you mean by moss?
The two aquatic mosses that come to mind are java moss (which is actually a plant) http://www.tropical-aquarium-plants.co.uk/images/JavaMoss.jpg
Or moss balls, which is actually algae http://www.snailshop.co.uk/assets/images/db_images/db_moss_ball1.jpg
You can put either of those in your tank, just make sure you have a fluorescent light. They will help degrade nitrites but they won't replace weekly water changes. They do look great, though.
However... Not sure what you mean by "feeding tanks" - are you using them as feeder goldfish? Goldfish produce an awful lot of waste and would easily foul up a 1 gallon tank. Even if you're only feeding them to other fish, you're decreasing the quality by keeping them in high-ammonia tanks.
