Salt ...
it is too cold for salt right now unless there is good movement of water from bottom
to top, otherwise it will sit on the bottom and teh fish sit down and get salt burns.

Salt ...
I am wondering if our weather is too cold to put the box of
salt in the pond? Nedra "Cybe R. Wizard" Cybe_R_Wizard@WizardsTower wrote in message news:20040323173905.567228c2@WizardsTower...

I dropped 10 lbs of solar salt (rock salt) in my plant pond so it would be in the flow and it was dissolved in a couple days. Very little salt is needed for osmoregulation, so perhaps you have a better idea. Regards, Hal Yep, pull the top of the box off and gently place it on the bottom, opening faced upward. Cybe R.

Okay, I just have to ask. How the hell do the fish know they need a salt
treatment? Joe On 3/22/04 3:33 PM, "Cybe R.
