My mom took my son out and since he hasn't quit talking about our new 'fishes house' (what he calls our tank lol!) and it having no fish, she went out and bought two platy's, a micky mouse and a red wag platy. They have been in the tank since Thursday, I've already done a PWC just to be on the safe side, the fish were both hiding in the back around plants for a while, but after the PWC they seem a lot more active now and exploring a lot more. I will be going to get the master test kit today, I've been keeping an eye in the pH and it's holding steady at 7.6 so far, temp is staying between 76-78 degrees. I've only been feeding them once a day. I've read that platy's do better if you add aquarium salt to the tank, should I be doing this while it cycles or should I wait until its cycled then start adding the salt?
