couious to see if any of you breeders use salt in you zebra breeding, rearing tanks? or if anyone knows the natural salinity in the rivers L-046 is found? if anyone dose use salt,...what SG do you keep it? and do you use rock salt or marine salts?

Thank you for your time..

I don't think Plecos don't like salt much....I put about a teaspoon or two of epsom salt every now and then for a 20g
