Haha you seen to be breaking whatever basic fish keeping rule there is.
1) Always cycle your tank before introducing livestock. If cannot wait , I suggest you go buy those liquid BB to speed up the cycling proccess.
2) Use anti-chlorine/chlormaine to the tap water. No need to age them.
3) Never use salt on freshwater shrimp tank! Both your plants and shrimps will surely perished!
