One of my other hobbies is keeping two freshwater aquariums. When I do a partial water change, it feels like such a waste to put the water down the sink. So. I know that aquarium plants like nitrates, but what about my flowers?
- The fish are betta, tetras and cory cats (corydoras catfish)
- They are all fed Hikari foods (micro pellets, bio betta gold and algae wafers)
- There is NO salt added to the water, though I do use a water conditioner (Tetra AquaSafe)
The pH level hovers around 8.0 (our water here is very basic), the aquarium is fully cycled (ammonia and nitrites are at 0 ppm) and the nitrites are at about 20 ppm. I mostly grow roses and veggies, but I doubt I’d use it on the veggie garden for fear of chemical contamination.
So guys, what do you think?
