Hydroponic plant varieties suitable for fish tanks
Nowadays, many people not only like to grow flowers and vegetables at home, but also like to put fish tanks. Fish tanks can not only raise fish, but also plant some aquatic plants in them.
This can not only make the aquarium look monotonous, but also improve the water quality of the aquarium. Today, I share several aquatic plants that can float on the water to purify water. Might as well raise a few.
NO 1, lotus leaf
A lotus leaf has only one leaf floating on the water and its root system grows. It can also produce white flowers with layers of fluff, which are small and exquisite and full of fairy tales.
Moreover, lotus leaves grow and bloom at the same time. When new leaves grow, they are directly cut off and put in a fish tank, which is a new plant.
Putting a lotus leaf on the fish tank can be stored with the fish to improve the water quality environment of the fish tank. The key is that the growth of lotus leaves is also very solid, and it doesn't need management at ordinary times, so the overall look is more textured.
NO2 and water hyacinth
Water hyacinth is a plant that is particularly prone to flooding in some waters in the south. It floats in the river, and its reproductive ability is particularly strong. It is easy to grow into a large piece and will bloom.
Water hyacinth also has a name called Eichhornia crassipes. There are many people pushing carts to sell this plant in the street. This plant has big fat leaves and beautiful flowers, which is especially suitable for being put in a fish tank.
But its reproductive ability is super strong, and planting one tree can quickly breed into several trees. Moreover, it also has super water purification function, so it is very good to keep one in a fish tank.
Third, water hibiscus
Does water hibiscus sound a bit like a flower? In fact, its whole plant is like a blooming peony flower. It also floats on the water, a bit like a green vegetable, and its leaves are corrugated, which is super beautiful.
It can also breed many new plants on the water surface, which is a very beautiful and fresh hydroponic plant. It is also the phytoplankton in the south pond, which is particularly hard and fertile. One plant can breed a lot soon, and the key is to effectively improve the water quality of the fish tank.
Fourth, water lilies.
Water lily is a very beautiful aquatic flower, and it also has a strong purification ability for water quality. It is very suitable for keeping in a turtle tank to adjust the aquatic ecosystem. However, everyone should pay attention to the fact that in the early stage of raising water lilies, it is best to fix the roots to avoid floating around.
No.5, Acorus gramineus
Acorus gramineus is a kind of aquatic flower with great temperament. It is especially suitable for keeping at home, and it can effectively purify the water with the turtle tank.
Generally speaking, Acorus gramineus likes to grow in a cool and humid environment. It can not only effectively purify the water quality, but also effectively improve the ornamental value of the turtle tank.
No.6, Ceratophyllum
Ceratophyllum is a very common aquarium plant. Its figure looks soft and cheap, and it is beautiful in water.
Moreover, Ceratophyllum demersum has strong photosynthetic capacity, can flourish in water, plays a role in stabilizing water quality, and is very suitable for being kept in turtle tanks.
NO7, green radish
A friend put the green radish directly in the fish tank and tied its roots on the surface of the fish tank. The green radish will grow vigorously.
Because there are some organic substances such as fish manure in the water in the fish tank, it can grow quickly without any fertilizer.
This hydroponic green radish can also be used for raw fish, which not only improves the water quality environment of the fish tank, but also makes the leaves of green radish oily, which is also a good choice for it to grow.
Eighth, duckweed
Duckweed is an aquatic plant floating on the water. Some vegetarian turtles and fish eat duckweed.
Duckweed can not only decorate the water landscape of turtle tank, but also effectively purify the water quality.
However, water hyacinth and duckweed should be caught regularly, and too much will affect the oxygen supply in the water.
No.9, copper money grass
Generally, copper grass can be cultivated in hydroponics or semi-soil and semi-water, but during potted plants at home. If you have fish and want to grow plants in a fish tank, try copper grass.
Copper money grass has a strong vitality and is very suitable for planting in water in fish tanks. According to the needs of your own fish tank, you can choose to soak all the copper grass in water, or you can only soak the roots in water for culture.
