need help deciding on brackish or fw
My lfs says his gsp are bred in captivity in fw. Ive read that gsp thrives in brackish. He tells me a tsp of aquarium salt per 2 gallons added to my established tank is sufficient for my gsp to live a long healthy life and brackish is not necessary. My question is if this is true or would brackish better serve my gsp

Brackish to full marine is the way to go. Aquarium salt is not appropriate.wesb219 wrote:My lfs says his gsp are bred in captivity in fw. Ive read that gsp thrives in brackish.

I'm locking this thread. Your original question was answered & you asked the new one in another thread, which I posted an answer.
