Okay. Last year at the PB conference a few people started talking about this, and it didn't come to conclusion.

So I'm throwing this out to a) see experiences, and b) see suggestions.

I'm considering adding salt to my pond because I've heard that it helps with algae, and it's actually healthy for the fish. Researching this isn't easy. Lots of info on medicinal purposes, but not for other reasons. This isn't possible in big ponds, but in microponds the salt volume probably is.

1 - anyone added salt to make their pond more brackish?
2 - why would you add salt?
3 - how much would you add?
