nope never have on any of the plants. i run them under tap water and throw them in. you cant sanitize the fish so why sanitize the plants? i have 3 blue gills in there from the same water and i used to have a striped bass but to much co2 killed him. very sensitive for such a strong fighter.
I have picked up many many local plants and never sterilized them.

Better safe than sorry. and yes, you can sterilize fish/plants. you sterilize fish by QT and treatment of any illness that shows up. you sterilize plants by doing a bleach dip.
