Imo it’s part of the hobby. To minimize:

Increase ventilation (hard if it is a glass cover just above water level.

Check on your flow and where it breaks the surface of the water.

Keep your water level constant with an ATO (allows you to fine-tune the setup for your tank)

Somewhat out of phase with your thread title. If you want a detailed answer, please provide detailed background. How many fish over what period of time?

Also, if fish are dying during lights out, consider limited oxygen and higher carbon dioxide which should produce low pH.

Did you cycle your tank?

I'm thinking there are more issues here than just salt creep

This 100% to go from asking about salt creep to..all my fish are dying (with no specifics) Is an interesting transition lol.

What are you using to clean the salt off with to is the tank cycled to where are the fish coming from. Has any kind of quarantine process been done?
Maybe the OP should start a specific thread to deal with the dead fish issue first?
And pictures and a tank description ( filtration etc.)would help.
