As the title says, I was wondering if using my aquarium water from my planted tank would be good for watering since it doesn't contain any chlorine and there is ferts in the water.
Any thoughts?

Should work. There is a whole branch of hydroponics called "aquaponics" that uses this very principle.
YES DO IT!
Will work. I do it all the time. My bedroom aquarium has a high concentration of nitrates and very low nitrite and ammonia levels and my plants love it.
This is the kind of stuff that I love...

There is a guy on youtube with a couple of ebb and flow tables (very large, like 4x8' tables) set up with aquariums under it. He grows just about everything from peppers to lettuce and tomato in those tables all winter long.
here is one of his videos but he has a bunch in his channel.

That's what I thought. I have a heavily planted tank that's CO2 injected and fertilized once a week and I figured if those plants are doing well, then it should be good for the pepper plants
unless u have a /water pump/filter like mine and kills microrganisms.. =D mine was initially setup for saltwater tank
