More overall, the stuff that we are dumping can also impact the environment. A lot of people are using medicine to treat their animals and just dump the waste water directly into the sewage or worst directly to storm drain without neutralizing the water first. That can impact the environment.
Also the waste water from our water change can impact the environment. It may have some stuff (live or not) that may not be native to our local environment. Dumping them into sewage and/or storm drain may introduce them to our local environment.



By George, I think you've created a sub category to the original question.... It's our home environment being affected by the hobby.. Carry on, do discuss..

Pretty sure what I had for dinner last night had more of an impact on the local environment than my aquarium ever will.
