I think that alot of people are concerned with the thought of having fake plants in their aquariums. Mainly due to in part that they are made of plastic and silk among other things. Given plastic isn’t as eco-friendly as we would like it to be, it still has plenty of benefits. For one you don’t have to buy new plants every so often due to them dying or whatever, and two they are more cost effective in the long run! I have a couple of “silk” plants as well as real plants in my aquarium. You can hardly tell a difference between the two. Here’s a good site that offers quality “silk” plants, check them out if you interested! Artificial plants
