Philodendron in my filter or rooting in my tank

[Beardogg85]

? Is this plant safe to start rooting in my filter or tank. I heard they were poisonous to cats or i guess animals not sure if this is true. Thought it would help with nitrites and just look cool like to keep fish and grow plants y not try both. Just looking for answers thanks.

should be fine as long as no fish plan on nibbling at it. aroids are toxic at super high levels but usually are OK for fish tanks.

Fish never seem to eat them

Yeah just be careful if you have cats or dogs in the house. Really any types of mammal, possibly herbivorous reptiles that could eat it.
