:Could anyone clarify what this aquarium salt is...someone earlier specified that it was for freshwater tanks...will the addition of this to help our FRT harm our other fish? We have a blue lobster, plecos, various catfish (armoured, coryador, pengassius), and one poor tiger barb and a guppy.

:Also, to follow up an earlier point about importing. I heard that Australia cannot export FRT but New Guinea can and that is where the majority of ones in UK (where I am located) come from. I'm not sure that anything could be held against us in court of law...most likely the owner of the shop would be in some violation if anything. Still, they are a little dodgy there, no receipts and cash only purchases.


You need special documentation to get them out of New Guinea and it is NOT likely that their government will issue such documentation (if so the it would be costly I am sure).

With regard to aquarium salts at one tablespoon per 5 gallons of water it will not harm your fish at all.
