Submerged or Oxygenating 
Plants 
Oxygenating Plants must be plant¬ 
ed in every pool if you want to keep 
your fish healthy. For them to live 
means plenty of these plants to eat 
and spawn on. 
To have a clear pool means the 
planting of many of these plants. 
Anacharis (Elodea Canadenis)—The 
well known fish moss which every¬ 
one is familiar with. Very good 
for aquariums and pools. Is about 
one inch in diameter. 
Coon Tail (Ceratophyllum) — Very 
good, is much finer than anacharis 
and looks better in aquariums. Is 
about 1 V 2 inches in diameter. 
Coon Tail Dwarf (Ceratophyllum). 
Heterantherea — A pretty fern-like 
plant with crinkly leaves which is 
certainly a very good oxygenator. 
Sagittaria — This plant is above the 
water during the summer months 
and submerged during the winter, 
and is a continual grower, which 
keeps the pool clear as a crystal. 
Sagittaria Grandi (Wide Leaf). 
Sagittaria Nations (4 in. to 6 in.) 
Sagittaria Sinensis (4 in. to 7 in.) 
Sagittaria Pusilla (2 in. to 3 in.)

grass) —. A submerged plant with
