Many aquarium plants will float if uprooted, but plant weights to help make sure your plants stay where you want them. These are aquarium safe, easily bend to fit where you want them and can even be cut down if working with small plants. They will not rust and are completely reusable and recyclable.
No More Floating Plants
One of the all-too-common problems with new stem plants is that they often come with no roots and won't stay planted in the substrate. Not to worry — just wrap one of these plant weights at the base of the plant, approximately 1 inch from the bottom. Then bury the plant weight into the ground and the plant will stay in place.
Safe for Fish, Shrimp, and Snails
While the plant weights do contain lead to remain soft and malleable, none of the aquatic animals we've kept them with have ever been affected. In our decades-long experience, plant weights are completely safe for fish, invertebrates, and more.
These are slim and very pliable, easily gently wrapped around the base of the plants. I've also used them to weigh down mosquito netting to keep the fish from tearing into new plants while they settle in.

Plant Weights
Perfect for those stubborn, refuse to sink, plants that are unwilling to stay in position! Easy to wrap around the base of your plants and put where you want.

Plant weights are amazing
My water pig (goldfish) kept rooting up my plants. I decided to buy the weights to help keep them in the substrate. Worked perfectly! Highly reccomend.
