Witch Salt Type?

[Yazan]

Hi. Just want to ask what do people use for salt for saltwater aquariums? What I mean is that do you use ''Table Salt'' to make the water salty for saltwater fish..

Simple answer: No.

You need marine salt. Saltwater contains far more than just sodium and chloride (over 70 elements and minerals are added from marine salt).

Yeah, any saltwater store will carry sea salt mixes. There are tons of different brands, but they're not all that dis-similar from each other if you ask me.
