Is old freshwater aquarium water good for houseplants?

Can you answer Deneen's question about aquariums?:

I have an established freshwater aquarium. When I do water changes, I want to be frugal and use the water to water my plants. Is this a good idea?

The old aquarium water has nitrates and some nitrites and is Ph balanced. There is also some diluted salts in it.

This is to appreciate the good habit of being frugal in using water.

On the face of it , there seems to be no harm in using that water to household plants . Could be beneficial !!
