Has anyone had any luck establishing pond plants or cold water plants within a freshwater aquarium?

I've heard of others doing this with some success depending on plant variety, i'm just wondering if this may or may not work?

My reasoning is that within my area GTA Ontario they are far less expensive, but will they work? I'm concerned that the shock from cold to heated water would be terrible for them.

Can't answer your question, but I'd think that if you explained what you were trying to do at your local pond plant store, they could guide you and suggest something.

I am not sure either, but ponds in ontario (backyard variety) get quite warm in the sumer time, i would expect that it would work, kwas dot ca has some great planted people if that helps and they are somewhat local to you, ask there and see what they have to say...
