Description from the creator

Are you tired of trying to figure out how to keep plants from floating in your fish tank? If so, this video shows you how to anchor plants in your fish tank so you can keep your aquarium looking well maintained. Column feeder plants, such as java fern, and duckweed get their nutrients from the water and are okay floating in a tank if you so choose. Root feeders, such as Amazon swords and Cryptocoryne absorb nutrients from the substrate. They need to be anchored down into gravel or whatever you use to absorb nutrients properly.
