Aquarium plastic plant-PP9822

Description

The PP9822 is part of the plastic plant series and is approximately 4.5 inches (about 11 cm) high. It is made from aquarium-safe plastic with a weighted base that helps it stay upright in gravel or sand.

It is designed to:

  • decorate aquariums and terrariums,
  • provide hiding places for fish,
  • and create a natural underwater appearance.

Features

  • Non-toxic plastic material
  • Fade-resistant colors for freshwater tanks
  • Soft flexible leaves
  • Weighted gravel-style base
  • Easy to move and clean
  • Suitable for beginner aquariums

Benefits

This plant is popular because it:

  • does not need light or fertilizer,
  • never dies like live plants,
  • helps shy fish feel secure,
  • and adds color instantly to a tank.

Care instructions

Before placing it in the aquarium:

  1. Rinse with warm water only.
  2. Do not use soap or chemicals.
  3. Place the base into gravel or substrate.
  4. Clean algae buildup regularly.

Things to know

Over time, plastic plants can:

  • collect algae,
  • trap dirt,
  • or become brittle after years underwater. Some hobbyists also mention that rough plastic edges can damage delicate fish fins.

It works best in:

  • freshwater community tanks,
  • goldfish tanks,
  • beginner aquariums,
  • and low-maintenance setups.
