coelacanth Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 no, they are reef fish. Pure marine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Yes, they can go in brackish if you don't mind killing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidb Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 its a silly question isn't it? What constitutes brackish- Not fully marine and not fully freshwater. Many people run Fish only tanks with a specific gravity of 1.021. Is that brackish? It would be a better idea to state the salinity of the water than just saying its "brackish" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Brackish is generally up to a salinity of 1.010sg Marines would be about 1.025. So two and a half times the salinity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidb Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 then what is it called if you have a salinity 1.010-1.025? It is called brackish.... I have seen people with brackish fish in tanks with a SG of 1.025, I have seen the same fish in a salinity of 1.010 and the same in 1.015... If the Salinity of the tank is high end brackish The clown will do well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
