These are just a few of the sources that mention they come from brackish waters. I read it in in a killifish book as well, though the publisher of the book I forget.
There are ton of sources out there that say this fish comes from brackish habitats. That's why I'm so curious. If in the wild, this fish comes from some brackish waters (though not exclusively) why can't it be kept in brackish waters in an aquarium?
