The first plant is some sort of java fern..

The second Driftwood has no plants that can survive for long submersed.

[Rael]

but is the second plant harmful in any way towards fishes or water parameters?

[Shadow]

it will rot and foul the water, increase amonia level.

Actually i don't think that is what you need to worry about. I just think it weird for you to buy plants that you want to see die. If you know its going to die underwater, it doesn't make sense to me why you would leave it there and see it die and then see what that does to your fishes.. so why not just take them out.

well they dont wanna see their money go to waste plant 1. its good to go
2. non aquatic
3 non aquatic

[ranmasatome]

Precisely.. and thats why it should be removed..so it will live and you can save your money.
