They do not "show" balance of nature. What could be happening is, your planted aquarium could be a "balanced aquarium" or be in the process of becomming one. In a 'balanced aquarium' the living creatures (fish etc) produce waste products. These products decay and become poisonous (Ammonia). Without a natural balance of other organisms (Bacteria) the living creatures in the tank would all be poisoned by the ammonia. What happens in a balanced aquarium is. The Waste Products produce Decay which produces (deadly) Ammonia. Aerobic bacteria convert Ammonia into (deadly) NitrIte and then into (harmless) NitrAte. The plants can then use up the NitrAte and in the process of photosynthesis, produce Oxygen, some of which is used up by the fish etc. In todays aquaria most of this 'Ammonia to Nitrate' conversion is carried out in a filter that has been 'cycled'. Cycled simply means that the filters' media have suffucient aerobic bacteria to perform this Ammonia to Nitrate 'conversion'.

What happens if you leave a dead fish in the tank and how does it affect the aquarium ecosystem?
Leaving a dead fish in the tank can lead to an increase in ammonia levels as the fish decomposes, which can harm other fish and plants in the aquarium. This can disrupt the balance of the ecosystem, potentially leading to illness or death of other aquatic life. It is important to promptly remove any dead fish from the tank to maintain a healthy aquarium environment.

Does fish poop serve as fertilizer for aquarium plants?
Yes, fish poop can serve as a natural fertilizer for aquarium plants. The waste produced by fish contains nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus, which can be absorbed by plants to help them grow. This process is known as the nitrogen cycle in aquariums.
