    Hey there. There is an online store that has a huge selection of plastic plants, but since it isn't a sponsor I can't mention it here, however you can PM me and I'll send you the details

    There is a French manufactured brand that is supposed to be quite realistic looking. Can't think of the name off hand. Will post again if I remember the name :confused:

    Never used fake plants. But from what I have seen, the lighting of the tank makes a big difference.
    If the lighting isn't great, they won't look good at all.
    I have seen (in magazines) photos of fake planted tanks, with good lighting. And they look really really good.
