A little Salt from time to time added is kind of like a medicine for fish as I learned from local fisheries. Interesting Tums. I love "Out of the Box". Hey what's up with the salt, never heard of that? Here is a quick link I looked up that talks about salt use in aquaculture. http://www.extension.purdue.edu/extmedia/AS/AS-458.pdf Salt is used as a drug in aquaculture. I use Salt when I know fish are stressed for some reason. I personally believe the addition of salt to pond management allows fish a more stress free environment. Any response or adaptation to stress requires the expenditure of energy that would otherwise be utilized for maintaining normal body functions such as growth.
