  • Natural-looking decor to hold potted plants
  • Works in bare bottom tanks
  • Keeps fish from digging up plants

These rock-like planters great for setting up an easy aquascape. They allow you to move the plants as often as you want and keep fish from digging up your plants. They are especially great for goldfish and African cichlid tanks. There is a hole in the bottom center of the decoration that allows plant roots to reach substrate.

Easy Way to Plant

With certain types of aquarium plants, you can totally keep them in the plastic basket. Just slip 1-2 root tabs in the rock wool and drop the potted plant into the Easy Planter. The sturdy decor will prevent rambunctious fish from knocking over the plant or digging it out of the ground.

Natural-Looking Decor

We made the Easy Planter to look like natural rock that elevates the look of your planted tank in seconds. There is a large hole in the bottom of the decor, which allows plant roots to grow through the pot and directly into the substrate. Or you can use the Easy Planter in a bare bottom aquarium, like this one.

It works great for this beginner. It looks very much like a natural rock. I have anubias in mine.

Rock planters look great

Love it!

Very life-like look and texture, stays at bottom of tank. Finally have my plants staying where I want them to. I have tried other plant weights without success due to my Axolotl wanting to climb on them, not an issue with this weight.

Easy planting

These aren’t bad. I wish there were alternate molds but they work. Unfortunately I use white substrate gravel for my tank so I need to grab a darker color substrate micro gravel to repack on top so it doesn’t look too un natural.

They make the tank look nice

I bought two of the easy planters thinking it would look nice with a few vallisneria plants. They were shipped quick and packed perfect with the plants. I would rather go out of my way to order from Aquarium Co-Op than anywhere local.

Perfect idea!

I wanted to spruce up my 20 gallon with some live plants. I didn't really want to plant in sand or change .y substrate so I got the next best thing. These Easy Planter's Rock! They look great and instantly change my aquarium for the better.

Easy planter

I have a 125 gal tank with an Oscar and three Severums that like to dig up plants. When I put the plants in the Easy Planter the fish leave them alone.

Love the planter!

I was a bit worried about how it would look in my 5 gallon Betta tank but it looks beautiful with the Java fern I got as well.

Natural looking planter

This planter looks very nice and looks natural.
I put my Tiger Lotus bulb in the planter and it has sprouted a lot of leaves and looks really great in the planter! I’m very happy with my purchase, and will buy more.

Great idea

Absolutely great idea for plants like java fern! Love it!

Great!

It holds the plants in their pots well. I have a geriatric delinquent of an oscar. I caught him in the act of gently pulling the anubias barteri out of the substrate they came in. So the planter, the mesh basket, and the fert tab are all in the place I left it, but the ab is free floating.

Will the planter keep the baskets in place, and are they easy to use? Yes. 10/10 am going to get more now that I know he wont move them all over the tank. I have a 180. As a set of 4, it looks small, but the remedy will be more planters! And maybe some zipties for the basket/plant before they go into the planter. ;)

Planter rock

I have bought a few of these. I put 1 in my 10 gallon as a center piece with a java fern. Its beautiful. My shrimp love it. I finally got brave enough to put 2 plants in my 55 with pearl my my rescue a white giant goldfish who is close to a foot long and gobbles up everything. Her owners left her to die in a 5 gallon bucket. I couldn't allow it. She can have no tank mates cuz she eats their food too. I was scared she would shred the plants and thought the planter rock would maybe stop her. I put them in with a root tab in each basket put the light on them and watched close. Incase i had to rescue them. She raced over. Tried to rip one out of the pot. Got a big mouth full of the cotton wool and spit it out and has not tried again. Im so happy. I wanted to give her a beautiful home too with live plants. Im so thankful you sell these. I can do that now for her. Even when she rests at night she goes right next to the plants to nap. Opposite side of aquarium then she used too so she must love them too. Thank you again. I recommend these for the giant piggy fish.

Attractive planter

Bought 3 of these for my goldfish tank so the plants could establish without being bothered. Works great and looks great too. My fish feels more confident with rocks to hide between as well.

Look great in my Tanks

I have bought 3 of these Easy Planters and plan on buying more. They look amazing in my bare bottem Tanks with my Angelfish Pairs and Juveniles. The Amazon Swords and Java Verns are doing great I purchased from Aquarium Co-op too. Great Product 👍🏼

Doubles as a Betta Lazy Boy!

This is my second time ordering several Easy Planters! I have 8 heavily planted nano tanks with Bettas in them, but I still love to have a potted plant or two to switch out until I’m 100% satisfied with the layout. This is an “emerging” setup temporarily holding a rescued anubias, and Ned (Stark) decided to find an immediate alternate use for it as a recliner! I love these, and as you can see — had to stock up in case I decide to rescape or come home with more aquatic friends from my LFS!

Pull the Trigger!

Good morning, good afternoon or good evening! Whatever time you’re reading this!
Recently got this planter for an Anubias I purchased from Aquarium Coop. All I needed to do was drop the plant with its rock wool and mesh pot into the planter. Then place the planter in my tank. Easy peasy.
As per customer service, it is not an issue to leave the rock wool in place for long periods of time.

Just like their name says! Easy!

They truly are easy! I watched the video and added some easy root tabs to give the plants some kick to get started. Easy and simple to have aquarium plants. This is how things should be :)
