The salt will do no harm, but I would rinse shop bought live brine shrimp to avoid parasite contamination. That's the problem with buying them as opposed to hatching your own - you don't know where they've been! I do the same with all live food now after I got repeated outbreaks of white spot and gill flukes/internal worms - the only suspect was the live food which I HADN'T rinsed. No outbreaks since I started rinsing....
Hope this helps.
