Default Can Plecos live with fish that need salt, like Mollys?

I just now received twelve Fancy Black Molly fry and I am wondering, can
young Plecos [2 to 3¹/² inches] handle the one tablespoon per gallon
of salt? I know that Corys can't,....Can Plecos?~Dean.


Your mollies could probably do fine without salt, particularly if you have
hard water.

And please don't get the plecos unless you have a huge tank. These fish don't
belong in a tank less than 40 gallons (150L).

Plecos do not clean your tank. No fish will clean your tank.
