Backabit,

I respectfully disagree with Pondfrog. I can't imagine that little bit of salt would be a problem if it washed into the pond. Heck I use more salt than that all the time with my fish and it does them good. In aquaculture it's considered the 'aspirin" of aquaculture. We use it for hauling to reduce osmotic stress.

Some bodies of water have naturally elevated levels of salt and the fish do just fine. Bruce Condello's ponds have 5 gm/l.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
