fish tolerating salt in tank

[Bren]

I have a 10 gallon tank with a male and 4 female guppies, two neons, 2 tiny neon type guppies, 2 corys one is albino and a huge algie eater. My nitrates are high, and ammonia is up a touch...I was over feeding, so i have not slowed to a little once a day . I have had the tank a few years now. I would like to know if it is ok to add salt to my tank as i heard it is good for the guppies but then heard corys cant handel salt. thanks....

Well if you absolutely don't have to I wouldn't. I use about half of the recommended dosage of salt in my tanks with the corys in them,but I have been for a long long time,and I don't suggest it.

There is no need to add salt to your tank.

why do you want to add the salt??
if you fish arent sick ther really isnt any need for it
