When I do a water change (weekly/4 tanks) the dirty water goes into the toilet. This typically includes, small snails, small gravel, excess food, fish poop, dead plamts etc. Now I have a situation where the toilet behaves strangely - it flushes but not all the way and the back tank fills up but it doesn't fill up the front tank. I don't have any other place to dump the water ( the windows are way to high and after a mini-stroke no ladders for me. I'm not strong enough to get water from the back of the house to outdoors at the front of the house. Did all this stuff destroy my toilet or is i t just time to replace the inside mechanics of the toilet? I could call my landlord but it's a "no pets allowed" duplex (my cat was grandfathered in since she lived here before he bought the place from my stepmother after my father died). He doesn't know about the fish. I'm very careful to keep the hardwoods dry and luckily I have a second bathroom that I'm now using to dump tank water. It has ceramic tile, much safer for water spills.
So I guess the question is - is it safe to dump tank water and "stuff" in the toilet? Nothing is too big but it's worried me for a long time that the tank water would cause a clog or something similar. My assistant does most of the hauling but going a longer distance is getting hard on her back. Opinions please?
