Nobody should add salt to their water until they have done a salt test
to determine the native level of salt in their water. Especially
anyone near a coast. I disagree, there is a lot of evidence that a
low level of salt in the water helps stimulate slime coat and is
protective to fish especially when they get dinged during spawning, or
on rocks, etc. Ingrid
