7 Piscium is a single^[9] star in the zodiac constellation of Pisces,^[8] located around 343 light-years away from the Sun.^[1] It has the Bayer designation b Piscium; 7 Piscium is the Flamsteed designation. This object is visible to the naked eye as a faint, orange-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.07.^[2] It is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of 40 km/s.^[1]

This is a metal-deficient giant star^[10] with a stellar classification of K1 IV.^[3] It is a red clump giant, which indicates it is on the horizontal branch and is generating energy through the fusion of helium at its core.^[11] The star is 4.58 billion years old with 1.37 times the mass of the Sun.^[7] It has 22^[1] times the Sun's radius and is radiating 163^[1] times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,314 K.^[6]
