Fish in your dwc

Has anybody tried putting an algae eating fish in your dwc buckets? if you use an orange bucket and an air pump and lights above it it should be perfect temps and theres air for it to live. and it would clean your buckets...

Interesting. sucker fish for reservoirs. Not sure what the nutes would do to them.. kill em probably.

You shouldn't have algae in your buckets

not if your using organic stuff like me. im only using plant food thats it. and alot of fish tanks use chemicals to clean the water. its not like it it doesnt kill a plant it shouldnt hurt the fish

i dont have algae but just as an all around cleaner

DWC rocks!!!!!

i would never put a fish it my bucket im sure it would die. besides that, like the other guy said, you shouldnt have algae. change your res every week. if light gets thru put black garbage bag or something that blocks light over it. light is the reason for algae growth. temps i think would be ok though. from my reading, algae eaters prefer about 77F but im sure you could lower it a bit for your plants. i know for a fact from reading and experience, you want hydro 68-72ish F i've gotten away with 74-76 however i did get a little root rot. go any higher than that and your just asking for root rot problems. most people i know seem to like 70.

If you put fertiliser in, they will die.

I use this one

I'd try Mussels or Oysters before I'd use fish. Mussels and Oysters are filter feeders, and clean the water.

LOL why is it that a moron every couple weeks posts a thread about putting fish in hydro grow? Are there that many moronic people trying to grow medicine?

what about growing in your fish tank!! fuck ferts all the fish poop is good enough for your plants. get like a 30 gallon take set up a spot for a plant up top and a airstone and watch it grow with your fish

pretty sure that was a joke. hehe. The only way ive seen this done correctly is with large scale coy ponds that use benes, and even then the water is processed through it, not fish touching the roots.

Let's quit torturing the fish.

Mine or his? Mine was suggesting that what ever he is smoking now has some nice trippy effects if he thinks like this. I want some!
