APF Plant Weights

Despite being commonly called 'lead weights' in the hobby, our weights are crafted from a Zinc Magnesium alloy, making them entirely harmless to every resident of your aquarium. Use plant weight to wrap around the base, and bottom part of the plants. For best results, use an  APF White Foam™ to protect the stem of aquarium plants from direct contact with a lead weight. Bury the base of aquarium plants in the substrate to promote root growth.  APF Plant Weights for Aquarium Plants Safe for Aquarium use, not toxic to fish, snail, or shrimp Easy to keep plants weighted, anchors down Won't rust, flexible & easy to bent, reuse, and fully recyclable Tips: Use more lead weight to anchor the larger plant
