As long as its salt for fishes, they are fine.. but i marine salt is better. Hatchery rate depends on certain factors:
PH: about 7.5-8 Can use CC to treat awter 1st
Temp : 24-26
Salinity : Not sure.. Trial and error.
Air pump: The more the merrier Provided your water dont over flow
Preferably aged water. Try not to use anti-chlorine / chloramine products to treat the water.
