    Floaters are the first line of defense in a natural tank. They shade the water, take up excess nutrients and give fry a place to hide.

    • Natural shade that helps keep algae down
    • Cover for bettas, fry and shrimp
    • Just float them, with no planting

    The Father Fish way: net out the extras regularly. The nutrients leave with them. Some floaters are restricted in some states.
