WE bought some goldfish and acquatic plant to put in our fish tank. one of the fish just died, not that we can confirm that its related as the others are fine but we have realised that the "weight" holding the plant down is lead ! it was a bit of sponge rapped around the pland and clasped with a strip of lead about 8 X 40 mm. I'm amazed that lead is being used for this, with all the efforts to eliminated it from our daily lives we go and find it in a fish tank which will have water changed once every 2 weeks and put down the drain or onto the garden, surely the use of lead is not allowed in this sort of thing ?
