Plants That Grow With Zero Maintenance

These seven aquarium plants grow with almost zero maintenance — and one of them survived a six-week bucket experiment with no filter, no heater, and no fertilizer. In this video, you'll learn which planted tank species are truly forgiving for beginners and low-tech setups, and exactly how to place them for the best results. We cover java fern, anubias, hornwort, cryptocoryne, water sprite, vallisneria, and subwassertang — from how to avoid the most common planting mistakes to why one of these plants is a must-have for shrimp keepers. Whether you're setting up your first planted tank or looking to simplify a setup you already have, these are the plants that reward patience and punish overthinking.
