Keeping goldfish in hydroponic flowers: do these 4 things well and save on flower fertilizer, flowers bloom all over the tank
Many flower lovers think that with hydroponic flowers, just watching the roots grow is not particularly interesting. If you can add a little goldfish, it can add some liveliness to the flowers. Today Flower will introduce to everyone how to grow flowers well in hydroponics while also raising fish well.
1. Changing the water
Whether it is hydroponic plants or fish keeping, water is very important. You need to take both needs into account and reach a balance so that both the plants and the fish have a good environment. For hydroponics that also involves keeping goldfish, choose a relatively large water bottle so there is good living space. Goldfish adapt better to the existing living environment, so when changing the water you cannot pour all the water out, but should pour out half and keep half. Change the water about once every five days.
Note one thing: if the little goldfish is relatively small, then you cannot directly add tap water. First let the water sit for about 5 hours.
2. Fertility
The goldfish live in it, and their usual waste can serve as fertilizer for the plants. Therefore, there is no need to fertilize manually, and the plants can still grow very well, with lush green leaves and abundant branches and foliage.
3. Air
When doing hydroponics, pay special attention that the plants cannot block the opening of the container. Leave enough contact between the water surface and the air so oxygen can enter the water well. Otherwise, water without oxygen can easily affect the survival of the goldfish and also cause the plants' roots to rot.
4. Light
Avoid letting sunlight make the water too hot. If the water bottle is not very large, be careful to give the water bottle proper shade. Otherwise, it can easily scald the goldfish to death and also damage the roots.
