So I got this idea when I went to the Seattle zoo. (they recycle the water from their penguin exhibit)
I'm gonna use one of my spare tanks (prob 33g) and put a bunch of potted household plants in it. The idea is to put my old tank water from some of my tanks into this and have the plants eat up all the nitrates/nitrite/etc and then put it back into the tank when I do a water change.
I'll post some pics when I start the project.
What I want to know is where can I get:
- Golden pothos
- Umbrella Papyrus
- lucky bamboo
- Echinodorus grandiflorus
All of these plants can be grown with their roots submerged.
