        I don't even think I have ever heard of any brackish fish. I mean I know they exist but I couldn't name any. I have an aversion to salty water. Really, though, for some reason I can't take much salt. When I eat sushi I only put a drop of soy sauce on each roll. Too much and my stomach feels awful. 1000mg of sodium per tbsp!

        Back on topic : Someone (a brackish fish keeper) should make a list of commonly seen brackish fish with pictures or something? Maybe make some fish profiles. You know educate the rest of us.

          I know archer fish are brackish, and many puffers are as well. I also think that scats are brackish too...but I might be wrong on that one.

            No, scats are brackish. Maybe this will help you:

                    It seems like it would be hard to keep the salinity the same and to prepare the water. Maybe one day I'll give myself a salt dip.
