Garfish and Brackish Water: Can They Survive?

Yes, some garfish species can live in brackish water. They are usually found in coastal areas where saltwater and freshwater mix, such as estuaries, lagoons, and bays. Some garfish species, such as the Atlantic needlefish (Strongylura marina), are highly adaptable and can tolerate a wide range of salinities, making them well-suited for brackish environments.
