Don't freshwater dip anything, imho. Use CoralRX in salt water for corals. And quarantine and TTM your fish (see note atop forum).

The wastewater contains all the things you don't want your critters to be breathing, for one thing.

You can water your lawn with it or wash clothes with it, or any ordinary utility use of water. It's just got a concentration of minerals taken from the water that was stripped down to ro/di.
