So iv fallen down an intrusive thought rabbit hole. Of can u safely drink water from a planted tank. Most people make the assumption of fish in the tank but what if we were talking a shrimp tank? Not planning on doing it obviously. Idk I feel like heavily planted shrimp tanks are the most clean tanks on this planet. After observing my shrimp for so long I can safely say they eat and consume everything and anything considered waist or algae.
Only if you like fish peepee and poo poo
Think you’d be okay but wouldn’t recommend it, in a doomsday scenario I’d probably boil it first. In a heavily planted tank the water would be quite “clean” by definition.
