ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a process for acclimating a salt-water fish that is adaptable to acclimation to brackish or fresh water by initially placing the fish in water having about one half the salt content of its natural habitat, then slowly reducing the salt content to the desired concentration. The invention also provides a salt-water fish that can live in water that contains substantially less salt than its natural habitat. Further, the invention provides an aquarium that contains both a salt-water fish and a fresh-water fish.
