Do I need my air pump with my plants alive?

Recently, I planted some plants live in the water in my 10gal freshwater aquarium. I have read with an air pump can dissipate the CO2 that plants need. If I only do the work of some amounts of time during certain times of day / night, or should I stop using it when I have these plants? Thanks!

I planted a large tank that works with a system of CO2 when the lights go out, which is activated and a wall the bubble is, if the plant your tank then I suggest that you take seriously a book on the subject, see a lot of people do not know if the plants can breathe CO2 during periods light during the night is spent in the photosynthesis process and use oxygen and release co'2 therefore reservoirs have less fish planted. Having a job pump not oxygen, allowing gas exchange surface to produce an effective, more. AJ
