Guest Phreno Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Is epsom salt ok with some pearl danios and a snail? If not, they can be moved temporarily, but I'd prefer not to have to do that. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member DataGuru Posted July 2, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 2, 2005 epsom salt won't do anything but raise your GH. It's magnesium sulphate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Drgong Posted July 3, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 3, 2005 Salt and snails don't mix IN fact, if you ever have snail infestation, add a little salt, it dehirdates the snails... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phreno Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 I don't think epsom salt will hurt the snails? Isn't that NaCl, not MgSO4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member DataGuru Posted July 4, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 4, 2005 yep. in fact people add epsom salt and calcium chloride to increase water hardness (which is good for snails). I think it's also used in some of the home made fertilizer mixes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
