    Like Freon Said bubble it through some water and dump it on some plants, Ammonia IS NOT good for plants but there is bacteria that convert it into nitrates which ARE good so if you dump it directly on plants don't overdue it. The best bet would be to cycle the water through another bucket full of pool screen this creates a ton of surface area which will be completely colonized with bacteria and convert the nitrates if left out to the open air within about 3 weeks.

    This is how aquaponic growers are able to grow tilapia and other fish and then cycle that water through a Bio-filter or through a gravel grow bed and grow plants with NOTHING other than fish waste. If an operation isn't in your town or city your not looking hard enough someone is doing it, and more and more people are catching on everyday.
