Recently someone asked why I put aquarium salt in my new freshwater tank, and I could not answer to their satisfaction. I know salt can help fish deal with disease, stress and high ammonia levels. But why is that? What exactly does it do for them?
(just FYI my new fish are cichlids and came from a pretty salty tank ... but I understood salt was good for all freshwater fish)
