In recent years, hydroponic succulents have been popular among flower enthusiasts for their beauty and ease of care, and aquarium keeping has also become a popular home decoration method. Some may ask: Can fish be kept under hydroponic succulents? This article will reveal the secrets of the symbiosis between succulents and fish.
Basic principles of hydroponic succulents and fish keepingHydroponic succulents, as the name implies, are planted in water, using nutrient solutions to provide the necessary nutrients for their growth, while fish keeping involves placing fish in aquariums, using the oxygen and nutrients in the water to meet their growth needs. Although these two methods of cultivation seem completely different, they share certain similarities in the aquatic environment.
1. Hydroponic succulents: In water, succulents absorb nutrients from the nutrient solution through their roots, while releasing carbon dioxide, which can provide oxygen for the fish to meet their respiratory needs.
2. Fish keeping: Fish breathe in water, releasing carbon dioxide, which can provide nutrients for hydroponic succulents and promote their growth.
Advantages of keeping fish under hydroponic succulents1. Aesthetics: Combining hydroponic succulents with fish keeping can make the home environment more beautiful and enhance the decorative effect.
2. Space-saving: Having hydroponic succulents and fish in the same room can save space and make better use of limited living space.
3. Cost-saving: Hydroponic succulents and fish share the same water source, which can reduce water costs.
4. Environmental protection: The symbiosis of hydroponic succulents and fish can reduce water pollution and achieve environmental protection.
Precautions1. Water quality: When hydroponic succulents and fish are in the same room, the water quality should be kept clear and non-toxic. It is recommended to change the water regularly to ensure that it meets standards.
2. Light: Hydroponic succulents require sufficient light to promote their growth. When keeping fish, avoid direct strong light to prevent it from affecting the fish's health.
3. Nutrients: Hydroponic succulents require an appropriate amount of nutrients to ensure their growth. When keeping fish, avoid excessive feed residue to prevent it from affecting water quality.
4. Temperature: Both hydroponic succulents and fish have certain temperature requirements, and room temperature should be kept appropriate to avoid being too high or too low.
