[APD] plant salt tolerance



Hello folks,
 
I have a heavily planted rainbowfish tank and I am trying to combat a
chronic parasite problem of Epistylus (showing up as white tufts around
the mouth and on torn or damaged body parts).  Salt has been successful
in treating this in the past, but I am hesitant to do my usual 10-15 ppt
salt treatment for fear that it will hurt the plants.  What is the known
salt tolerance for most aquatic plants?  2-5 ppt?  How long?
 
Thanks,
 
Jen
