All livebearers tht can live in brackish water
 
I know that mollies tend to flourish in brackish water but they are a rather large chunky livebearer and I wouldn't put a group in anything less that 30g
 
The common guppy and "swamp" guppy can (Poecilia reticulata & Micropoecilia picta), as mentioned mollies can (in fact some do best in brackish) and the Pike Topminnow can be kept in brackish.
 
Some Halfbeak species have been known to live in brackish waters, but hobby specimens would need a very gradual change to such conditions, as these fish do not appreciate big water chemistry changes (so much so that I change no more than 10% on any given day by normal water change methods, I would only contemplate a massive water change by adding the new water by drip).
 
thanks, is the any cichlids that can live in brackish water ?
