Aquarium Plastic Plants

Cleaning Plastic Aquarium Plants?

Hello all. Does anyone know a good way, short of scrubbing by hand, to clean intricate plastic aquarium plants. They gather algae after several months, and make the tank look dingy, even if the water is clean. New ones really brighten up the tank, but cost $$$. I have tried everything short of the dishwasher! Thanks!

Bleach, yes it does kill fish if put in the tank but most people take the plants out to clean them. What I do is use a bleach solution 1 part bleach to 10 parts hot water, then I let them soak while I do other tank maintenance like a water change, scrub the glass and things like that and by the time I’m done the plants are done too. I rinse, rinse, rinse the plants in fresh water until I don’t smell anymore bleach then soak them for a few mins in water with a little extra water conditioner in it then put them all back in the tank and they look like new. I do it every month and a half to 2 months and have never lost a fish yet so it can’t be as dangerous as some people say and water conditioner removes the chlorine out of the tap so why wouldn’t it remove any from the plants?
