A few practical tips before using it: Rinse it in warm water only before placing it in the tank. Avoid soap or detergents because residue can harm fish. Check leaves for sharp edges if you keep delicate fish like bettas; aquarium hobbyists often recommend sanding rough plastic edges if needed. Over long periods, plastic plants can become brittle or collect algae, so occasional cleaning and replacement are normal.
