Wife and I are in the planning stages to build a house that is on it's own well water and own sewage system. I would like to add a larger tank and a fish room so my water volume will go up and thus waste saltwater would go up. Let's say the 40-50 gallons of saltwater to go down the drain a week. You cannot just dump it out on the grass or you wont have grass much longer.
So how bad is saltwater to a sewage system? Been reading that large amounts of saltwater will kill the bacteria that is required to make a sewage system work properly. So how much is bad or can you just add additives monthly to the septic to keep the saltwater from killing all the "good" bacteria? For people on their own system what do you do?
Thanks.
