I would like to hear more on this. Bruce I thought you added salt to your water. Are you saying it leaches from the soil on its own? Can you think of any other reasons other than salinity as to why you don't have FA problems? Grass carp? Well water flow thru? MJ got a rake? Eric what possible negatives could this have on water quality other than the obvious problem of adding more salt than freshwater fish can tolerate? Right now I have access to large amounts of salt at zero cost if I do some cleaning of it first and the FA at the pond is also getting out of hand. Aaron if you find numbers on how much salt to add please post them. I will do some checking also but I don't think I have much info on it at work. Not practical for most people but in my situation adding salt may work.

Does the name Pavlov ring a bell?
