Sorry, not to start a debate here but I dont think theres an issue, salt vs fresh im finding it easier to grow algae in salt then in fresh. If you keep up on your water changes, keep filters clean, and if still a problem have some phosphate material i wouldnt see a problem. Id watch temps more then anything, maybe run them higher off the water then on the salt. Watch using insurance. Ive talked to my insurance people and Ive pretty much decided to just go for it cause they said if there was anything they would do it once and after that the premiums would skyrocket.
