I Might Get A Silk Plant Tomorrow

[squiremaster]

okay so you might know what I might need for tomorrow so just to let you know, under the gravel of my aquarium, my plastic plant is stuck in there by a suction cup. So I need your help finding out what to do... What should I do?

most silk plants have a heavy base so the base will sink to the bottom and hold the plant in place. all mine have bases. just make sure you rinse the plant first and when you do water changes if it looks icky or yuck just give it a rinse under warm water i have silk plants in all my tanks

Just move the gravel out of the way and peel the suction cup off. Bury the base of the new plants in the gravel.

How long should I let my plant soak in water

A quick rinse in quite warm water should suffice. Just swoosh it around abit and rub the leaves under a running tap.
