I have the same fish except I don't like plecos...I agree with Bob...thinking back on cycling my aquarium at the beginning and how hard I worked to make the ammonia and nitrite eating bacteria grow. Wouldn't want them in my plants for sure....
Weedhound Reviewed by Weedhound on . Using aquarium water Would my aquarium water be good to feed to my special plants? It's a tropical aquarium about 160L big. I have been using it on various plants in my garden and it seems to have a good effect. From a home measuring strip thing: Nitrites: 0 Nitrates: 100 mg/L pH: 7.2 hardness: very hard! off the scale.
