I have read that Bettas appreciate a pinch of aquarium salt. Any experience with this? Opinions?

I have two males, each in his own tank (5 gallon and a 6.6 gallon), and three females in a 28 gallon tank who will soon have friends added, probably some male Guppies and some GloLite Tetras. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your response. Do the Bettas like salt better? Is there any benefit? Or would I just be limiting myself regarding other fish I may want to add to the tank later?
