    there are varied view by various people as to the need to add salt in your tank as a prevention... Essentially the only thing it does help prevent is nitrite poisoning. As to the levels of salt dosed, it depends on what else you have in your water.

    in the first place
    preventing what?
    when you have an idea of what you want to prevent, work around that

    in the second place, nothing does more to prevent ANYTHING than the fishes' immune systems
    give them good water conditions and you're all set
    no need to use salt at all
