Keeping fish in hydroponic Pilea peperomioides is no problem, but the fish should not be too large. In addition, some species of fish are direct feeders and will nibble on the plant's roots; such fish are not recommended. You can choose small fish species that do not nibble on plants.

I. Is it good to keep fish?

Keeping fish in hydroponic Pilea peperomioides is no problem. Many flower lovers who like hydroponics like to keep one or two fish in the hydroponic container. This makes the rather rigid hydroponic setup feel more lively, with a fish swimming inside, so the ornamental effect is better.

II. Points to note

Note that the fish kept in the hydroponic container should, first, not be too large; second, there is the choice of some species. For example, fish like red carp (red koi) are not recommended for keeping in hydroponic Pilea peperomioides; this kind of fish is a direct feeder and will nibble on the roots of the Pilea peperomioides. This will cause some damage to the plant, so fish suitable for keeping in a hydroponic environment are those small species that do not nibble on plants, such as some fish of the family Cyprinodontidae (killifish), etc.
