That sounds a bit negative. I'm afraid you may have me confused with
someone else. I don't care what she hasn't done. She has been
helpful to me several times. I do agree with her theory on adding
salt to stimulate the growth of a slime coat on pond fish. I probably
picked the idea from a message from her to someone, but wherever it came
from the idea is mine now. I'm sorry if that bothers you. I can
surely understand if you don't wish to add salt to your pond, that will
be OK with me. I won't even consider it fish abuse, just a different
idea on fish keeping.
