I only use AQUARIUM salt when I'm treating for injuries as a rule. Fin nips ,etc. It speeds up the healing process. It also assists in helping to prevent secondary infections. I put in 1 tablespoon per 10 G of aquarium water and raise the temperature to 84F. I do this daily for 2 days then do a 40-50% water change and repeat at least once more.

I have read that some people use AQUARIUM salt as a regular course of tank maintenance but I'm from the school that believes if you use treatments like salt all the time when you do need to use it it won't work as effectively.

If you have live plants most won't tolerate much salt so check that out as well.
