Default putting plants in my aquarium - are my ideas ok?

You probably should not spend too much time landscaping the GF aquarium
because the goldfish would tend to eat anything including plants.

The last time I had goldfishes, I did saturate the tank with plants as
they provide a great food source when I was away for holiday. After a
week, I found that the plants are generally leafless.

most grow well in mud I thought I would bundle up a small ball of mud
with a plant fertilizer tab in the middle, plant the plant in it and
wrap the ball in some fine mesh thing. It worked great once but I'm
not sure how this would effect my GF on a large scale. I'm sure they
would be ok with the mud - but what about the fertilizer tab?
