Can fish tank water be used to water the flowers

Fish farming should always change the water for the fish tank. If you pour it directly, it's too wasteful. Watering the flowers is the king

1. Regulating soil acidity and alkalinity

The water for fish farming is slightly acidic, and the pH value is mostly about 6. It is good for plants that like slightly acidic soil, such as green pineapple, copper coin grass, turtle backed bamboo, white palm, Chlorophytum, Narcissus, hyacinth and so on

2. Provide nutrient fertilizer

The water in the fish tank contains nitrate, nitrite, ammonia nitrogen, fish excreta and other substances, which can provide nutrients for plant growth

What should I pay attention to when watering the flowers in the fish tank

1. Leave it for a while before watering the flowers

In summer, there is a certain temperature difference between the fish tank water and the potted soil. It is best to put the fish tank water for one or two days, and then water the flowers after the temperature returns to room temperature, so as not to affect the plant growth

2. Fertilizer control

Fish culture water contains certain nutrients. For plants in vigorous growth period, fertilization must be reduced to avoid overgrowth

3. This fish culture water cannot be watered

If disinfection salt or other fish medicine is put in the water of the fish tank, do not water the flowers, otherwise it will cause the plant to dehydrate and dry

How to raise flowers and fish at the same time

1. Container selection

It's best to choose a hydroponic bottle with a planting basket. The space is larger. The water level is higher when discharging water, leaving enough space for the fish to move

Of course, if possible, you can buy a larger fish tank equipped with water circulation pump, which has large space, and can also raise tropical fish, aquatic plants, etc., with higher ornamental value

2. Fish selection

The main thing is to raise flowers, supplemented by fish. Due to the limited space and the limited oxygen and other nutrients in the water, we must choose small fish. The number can't be too many, just 1 ~ 3, otherwise it's not easy to survive

3. Plant selection

First of all, hydroponic plants should be non-toxic. Dripping Guanyin, a poisonous flower, is not suitable for hydroponic fish culture. If the juice on the leaves drips into the water, it will not only damage the roots, but also poison the small fish; Alkaline plants are not suitable

4. Water treatment

It is not easy to dry the roots of fish in tap water for one or two days, which will lead to the death of fish in the house. We must change the water frequently in summer to keep the water clean

5. Stop feeding fish

The rotten roots, old roots, residual roots of hydroponic plants and the original microorganisms in the water are enough for small fish to maintain their lives. There is no need to feed, otherwise it is easy to pollute the water quality
