Yesterday I did a water change and cleaned my tank. All of my plants have been dying so I threw them away. I figured since my plants are gone I'd try this aquarium salt. I never used it before. I followed the directions to add it. When I came home from work there was poop all over the bottom. I've never seen so much poop in that tank like that before. Does the salt help fish clean out there system or something?
 
I wasn't treating for anything it says it's good for fish so I tried it. I believe I added half a cup

Salt is not needed for healthy freshwater fosh, since it increases the total dissolved solid levels ( normally done by waste). Heck it’s way more expensive than pickling salt or pool salt which would produce the same results.
