Plecos and salt?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The dats I will be adding with my plecos are 2 thin bars and 1 Indo. They seem to do really well with some salt in the water and heat. This is why I wanted to know. The only dats that are brackish conditions are the silver dats and the NGTs are slightly brackish I think. Thanks for the info guys. So I guess the royal is the only one?
 
yea, but it may be ok. i duno how much aquarium salt would become concentrated in algae or bogwood, and when how concentrated it is before it would harm the fish. i know you cant really use meds with royals, and a lot of unexplained deaths are due to not having bogwood

Doesn't make them unexplained then does it?
 
lol, alright. you know what i meant. it was a mystery to them. until i told em thats what they need lol. they are very prone to parasitic infections aswell in comparison to all other plecs
 
My first was a beautiful L190, but he died one day of a parasite. So I was very sad, and my wife bought me the L330 Royal! That made me very happy!
