scavenger fish and salt in aquarium

[snowbirdmo62]

Are there any kind of bottom feeders that will tolerate aquarium salt? I need to get a good scavenger to help out in between gravel cleanings. I have a 20 gallon tank with platy's , mollie's, and guppies. Any ideas anybody? Thanks!

My CAE does not seem to have any problems. I have platties, tetras, Gouramis, CAE and Flying fox and use aquarium salt.

Thanks, I got 3 albino cory cats last night, and they are just loving the tank! They are constantly playing in the bubbles and just plain hyper really!! No problems as of yet, I think they are gonna be okay! (also got a bubble mollie, man, they are so ugly, they are cute!!!)

....um cories can't tolerate salt

you cnt use salt with cories! they have no scales on their undersides, and the salt burns them....

Corys won't tolerate salt but your mollies can tolerate fresh, so I suggest you start doing daily water changes to dilute the salt.
