Awts that's pretty!

Anyways so one of my Plant (Idk the name) got messed up because I was dumb enough to store it in a bottle that don't have enough oxygen that's why it died.

My question is what is a good plant for a fry tank (good hiding spots and kinda supplies food)? NOTE: I'm looking for a plant that doesn't loose its leaves VERY often like i had before. like whenever i move them they will release like a hundred strand of needle leaves just like in pine trees. It pisses me off and made me clean a single tang almost 3 times in one week. so what basically happend is I stressed the Fry so 70% of them died. It sucked so much!

Java fern and java moss are probably the HARDIEST plants I have ever come across. Java fern leaves can repair minor damages, java fern is great cause it floats and most fry spend time at the top of the water, and both can live throughout pretty much anything.. especially good when living with delicate fry. I have never put any kind of fertilizer in my tank and it's still very healthy. As long as lit gets just a couple minutes of light a few times a week it will be happy.

There's the answer! Thank you Ashley!

I got regular livebearer fry right now, Guppies and Swords.

But once i get a female betta I'll breed them after a 2 weeks conditioning process.

So I will use them for betta Fry too.
