Pretty much all plants on the planet drink rainwater. I think yours will be fine.

Check the pH. What medium are you using?

Fergit that Nutes use your fish poop, and a pinch of calmag to the rain water or better 50/50 tap, you may need the micros

What do you feed those fish? Is that food meant for ornamental fish or is it certified for human consumption? Nobody thinks of the crap they put into those fish foods like things to make the water not cloudup and chemicals to keep the food from crumbling quickly. Not to mention additives for color enhancement sometimes medicine for parasites etc. Unless your feeding those fish something you can eat I would steer clear and leave that water for ornamental plants.

Rain water is perfect. I run my whole house on it. Depending on your medium you may need to PH it.
Stagnant water BTW is not rain water.
