So how does one migrate fish to salt water?

Mollies, guppies, some puffers , and some eels are a few of the fish that i know are capable of this but there are many more brackish water species that could be converted toa full marine environment but not sure if its really worth doing as marine fish are just so much nicer. The mollies were an easy choice as they were only $1.99 for the pair | |
