Yes get LR it will help with the cycle usually make the cycle shorter. 1 to 1.5 lbs per gallon. depending on how porous the rock is.

you add salt when you change the water... if you change the water. and you dont add the salt directly to the aquarium, you mix it first, then put in the salty water.
