You do water changes to get rid of nitrate, phosphate, other things... Think of NPK fertilizer- fish tank water's got at least two of those, plus more stuff. And it's free. And saves water.

I water our house plants with it during the winter. I end up dumping half of it though, since we have too many tanks, not enough plants. In the summer I'll dump the other half in the garden though, usually.

When I rinse out my filter media(in tank water I just removed), the water does get nasty, and I always just dump that water.
