datnoid in brackish water?

After seeing many beautiful specimens on this site i would like to ask if anyone out there has heard/done datnoids in brackish water ie. low salinity? I have read that they do "better" in this environment?
Any comment/expierence would be greatly appreciated.THANK YOU!

ST and IT seems to be freshwater fishes...
NTT and NGT seems to be brackish water fishes
AT i dunno....

brackish water is low in salinity? if i rem correct , salinity is higher than freshwater but lower than sea water , SG is ard 1.010 - 1.015(brackish)
also Brackish has a few levels... like estuaries where sea water meets at the start of the brackish part

Datnoides quadrifasciatus, Datnoides undecimradiatus and Datnoides campbelli do best in brackish water (they require it to a certain extent). All datnoid species can be found in brackish environs in the wild, but only these 3 species really require brackish water. D. pulcher (ST) and D. microlepis (IT) do equally well in freshwater.

VERY INFORMATIVE,THANK YOU; I was wondering what type datnoid has more of the gold "base color" with purple/blue overtone rather than the brown you nomaly see? Is this a fresh/brackish variety? Is it restricted/protected? Is it real?

Thanks for the info! I was looking for such info too!
