Penn-Plax Aquaponic Planter and Aquarium for Betta Fish | Tank Promotes Healthy Hydroponic Environment for Plants and Fish

PENN-PLAX presents the 1.4 Gallon Aqua-Ponic Fish Tank and Planter.Each fish tank is made from ultra-clear plastic,and replicates natures metabolic cycle by providing a healthy and symbiotic environmentfor fish and plants: as fish excrete waste in the tank, the plant atop absorbsthis waste as nourishment, which in turn cleans the tanks water.For those more interested in growing plants hydroponically,our tanks can also be used strictly as a planter, allowing you to add your own nutrients.Suggested Fish:While Bettas are the most popular fish for our 1.4 Gallon Aqua-Ponic Tank,they can also house Bloodfin Tetras, White Cloud Minnows, Danios, and Guppies (1 - 3 fish).For Bettas, please decrease the water level an inch,giving them enough space to breath from the waters surface.Suggested Plants:Most indoor house plants and kitchen herbs are suitable for planting atop.This includes Peace Lily, Chinese Evergreen, Lucky Bamboo, English Ivy, Mint, Watercress, Chives, or any leafy Lettuce.We recommend using established plants instead of starting from seed.Please research desired plants toxicity and nutritional requirements before using,since fish may nibble on the roots.Please note that the plant is not a source of food for fish.Any fish food can be used but avoid overfeeding as this can cloud water, and harm both fish and the plant.Additional Features:Our Aqua-Ponic Tanks come with ceramic planting media,which retains water and supports root growth for any plant you chose.Place larger pieces on the bottom of the enclosed pot, ensuringthat small pieces wont accidently fall into the aquarium.To add water into the tank, simply water the plant, as if its in a pot of soil.Items Included:Plastic TankLid with Enclosed PotCeramic Planting Media
