Could someone advise me please if I would do any damage to the compost
heap
if I poured the waste water from an aquarium onto it after cleaning out
the
filter. The water would be slightly acidic and would contain
amonia,amonium,
trace elements of nitrates, some nitrites and de-nitrifying bacteria in
smallish amounts. The ph would be between 6.5 and 7.2. I would be
discarding
about 20gallons per fortnight, too much for the heap but would a few
gallons
do any harm.
Thanks in advance
Shan
