I was wondering what Brackish fishkeeping is ? Is it something to do with the water ?

I'd really like to know, thanks.

The water is a little bit salty.

Water with a concentration of salt but not completely marine. Brackish waters are the 'boundaries' whereby freshwater rivers meet the sea/ocean.

You add a certain amount of salt per 5 gallons of water to make it brackish. Some fish like that kind of water, or can only live in brackish water. Examples are many kinds of pufferfish, and some of the livebearers.
