Just a question - why are you trying to regularly salt the tank?

Bristlenose plecs can take a little salt but not permanently in the tank.
Its not advisable to have salt continuously in your system.

Having salt in the water constantly can increase the amount of salt the fish normally store in their bodies and it can cause problems for the fish down the road by having to high of a bodily salt content.
