Fish waste water

[Pond9]

I have a question last year I used the dirty tank water to go in my garden. This year I’ve used metroplex and prazipro in my tanks is it still ok to use to feed the garden?

I personally wouldn't use it even in a flower garden.

I've watered the plants with fish medicine laced water and have no issues. The roses and gardenia still bloom like normal. I've even used waste water from the washing machine with no issues either. I wouldn't use it on any garden where you eat the fruit and veggies.

I agree. Unsterilized wastewater (from any animal) probably should (probably) never be part of any fertilization for plants eaten by humans. (We had an ecoli outbreak a few years back due to some people doing that.)

Unless someone is certain no fish diseases or parasites can make it from the tank to their dinner plate.

I wouldn't intentionally discharge antibiotics into the groundwater, eitthe.
