I've heard so many conflicting things on this. But today at my LFS the owner said I should add some. I have:
17 Cardnial Tetra's
3 SAE
3 Checkerboard Cichlids
2 German Blue Rams
2 Opaline Gourami
1 Molly
1 Gold Nugget Pleco (L177)

What do you guys think?

My opinion is salt in fresh water is way over used. There is honestly no reason you NEED to add salt to fresh water.
Maybe if treating ICH with high tamps and salt..... but you do not need to add it just to add it.

I would not add salt to that tank. Other than the fact that it isn't at all necessary, your pleco won't appreciate it.

I could not have said it better. Salt in freshwater no good.
