Well, you certainly aren't going to get any algae blooms in a septic

True, but would it be harmful to the bacteria that keeps the septic working?

I ask, as my ex used bleach a fair bit, and I learned sometime after our
divorce, that bleach is not good for septic systems. I never said
anything to the landlord about it. I don't use bleach myself, but don't
want to be flushing anything else into the tank that might cause
problems again.
