Hrm, I don't think sea monkeys would do well in salt, David. Maybe just regular brine shrimp for this guy :)

There is no point to this thread.

You haven't supplied us with any useful information.
You salt your fish repeatedly and I don't think you even know how much salt is in your tank.

You probably won't, but why don't you read this article on using salt all the time:

dude if u gots a petsmart around u, u culd tak ur water there 4 a test, they do it 4 free. other petstores charge a nom. fee fo dat stuff.

sounds liek ur trying to break into saltwater fish, maybe u should post in the gen salt forums b. tat sounds mo liek whut u need.
 
I assume your pleco's are succumbing to one of the few things, your gourami is a crap machine and is overloading your tanks and by some grace the other fish in there havent died yet, Your salt levels have to be off the charts by now, possibly close to a marine tank level, or there is not enough food for the pleco's. pleco's will not live on alge alone or whats in your tank, you need to suppliment them with other things, alge wafers, veggeis, fruit. Potato's and apples are a smash hit in my tanks along with lettuce. before you waste more money on a fish thats going to be blatently killed you may want to read the individual needs of they type of pleco you are getting, I would reccomend looking on www.planetcatfish.com Commons will eat most anything you put in there for them, some of the fancier ones require bog/driftwood to suppliment their diet. and once again Please work on your posting...It's difficult for us to help you when your typeing like your babbleing..

You want to know why your pleco died? Then you need to take the advice of others here on this forum. First off, why are you using salt?

and also my friends tank which is also the same, also has plecos, he pours so much salt in there also, y r they not dead???

Instead of answering that question, I'm going to ask you a question. Why are you adding salt to your aquarium? Roan Art has tried to show you some articles to read, but you don't seem to be paying attention to them. Salt has advantages with certain diseases and infections on a short term basis. It does not have any soundly proven advantages on a long term basis. Why are you spending money on salt? Spend it on a test kit instead. It doesn't matter how much salt your friend adds and how his plecos are still alive - what matters is salt is unneeded. There is no disadvantage to not using salt. Many people in this thread have advised you to NOT use salt. There's just no point in doing something that does absolutely nothing for your fish, and absolutely nothing for yourself in this scenario.

We cannot magically tell you why your pleco died if you don't give us information. We need information to guess why he died. If I told you my house caught on fire and asked you why it did, you couldn't determine the cause either without information.
