OXYGENATING PLANTS 
These plants are indispensable in a pool or aquar- 
ium where fish are present. They absorb many of 
the impurities of the water and liberate oxygen, 
which is necessary for the life and health of your 
fish. They furnish cover and protection for the 
fish during the heat of the day, and also supply 
them with green food. 
Plants received without roots’ can merely be 
placed in the water or potted in soil where they will 
soon develop a root system.
