it should be, just keep a watch for the increasing salt levels as that will kill them. some salt is good for them, i keep mine at a constant 10 on the scale but they have been higher. as long as the change is gradual they will be fine.
Indos are a fresh water fish, they are not found in brackish waters. NGT and AT's are found in brackish waters in the wild. People keep a bit of salt in their fresh water tanks to prevent disease, which is usually 1 tblspn per 10 gallons.
Indos should not be kept in brackish conditions.
