No. If you treated your water it will probably harm your plants. Plants need the chemicals that are in the water. To much fish waste is also to acidy but in SMALL amounts it is ok for plants. HOWEVER, If any fish die, plant the body in the soil,, that is GOOD fertilizer.

Old aquarium water is fantastic for plants, especially if you have fish that create a lot of waste like goldfish. The only thing you have to watch for is to avoid watering house plants with fish water if you've added any of these to the tank: aquarium salt (or any), any medication, or any chemical, including pH adjusters or algae killers etc. The last two generally aren't safe for aquariums anyway. pH up is fine if you know exactly what you are doing, but pH down (acid) and algae ridding chemicals (pesticides) are generally more harmful than good, for both your fish and houseplants.

If you have fresh water fish the water is good for your plants.
If you have salt water fish, the water will kill your plants.

It can, but the bacteria could make your house smell. It's better if it's used for garden plants outside.

Perhaps, but it would smell. Better to let the benefit go to the outside plants!

No-nasty yucky-like dipping water from a school toilet on fish day that won't flush.

It is of great nutritional value for your plants. A super recycling tip.

Very high in nitrates and amonia. Not a good idea.
