wolften Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I haven't used pool salt, but for the small amount you would need, non iodised salt from the supermarket would do. That's what I use wolften Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brisil Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 pool salts fine that what i use pad a couple of dollers for a 5kg bag, i just stick it in a bucket with a lid on it. and and grab a bit out as i need it. like wolften said make sure you use non iodised salt.if you buy a bag of it make sure it state pure sea salt. tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HereFishieFishie Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I use pool salt... On the topic of iodised salt, a little of that does no harm at all, if you really had to use salt in an emergency or just wanted to add a little salt, no dramas.

floppingflamingos Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 I was under the impression african cichlids or freshwater fish needed or even wanted salt, unless treating for ich? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
