I wanted to have a bubble wand or two in the back lenght of the aquarium for
the effect. I was told by one person that bubbles in salt aquarium lead to
the salt collecting at the top glass, above water level, where the bubbles
"pop". I assume this also leads to lower salinity over time.

Any experience out there? Worse case scenario I only turn it on for house
guests.

Thanks in advance.

No problem, unless the salt gets your lights. As far as the salinity
is concerned: not much. The water is evaporating with every splash.
The end result is the salt buildup. Scrape it off and let it fall back
into the aquarium. Small salinity changes have little effect on the
habitat. Because of the evaporation, you'll be topping off more
frequently though.
