:Do any of you keep Cory Cats with Platies? Ive read they are not tolerant of salt at all, and Ive also read they can tolerate a moderate amount of salt. Ive only recently begun keeping Platies and am adding 1 teaspoon of sea salt per 5 gallons to the water and about a tablespoon of Epsom salt per 5 gallons to raise the Gh. Id like to get some kind of catfish for the tank. What do you all recommend. Thank you!
None, if you want catfish in your tank then I suggest you convert your platies back to pure freshwater. Platies, unlike mollies, can handle pure fresh if you acclimate them very slowly since you already have them in brackish.
