let me restate...most fresh freshwater fish seem to be more sensitive to
chlorine compounds that sulfate compounds.

Are they, enough so that it would make a difference in choosing acids?
Many treatments for sick fish involve adding sodium chloride to the water,
and I've never yet seen a toxicity warning attached to this advice. I
can't imagine adding so much HCl that it would raise the chloride level
above therapeutic levels.

I'd really like to know what the answer is here, having heard lots of
warnings about too much chloride as well as too much sodium.
