extreme halophiles: LOVE salt, use the salt to generate ATP, and are found in the Dead Sea and Great Salt Lakethermocidophiles: LOVE high acidity and temperatures,found in hot springs and volcanic vents

Halophile
Extremophile, (extrem(e) + phile) = extreme + living or liking. So extremophiles live in conditions well away from the norm. They are more specifically halophiles.There are algae that live inside rocks in the Antarctic! And more commonly, there are the cyanobacteria, a.k.a. blue-green algae that live in boiling springs. Hope that helps.
Halophiles are salt loving organisms that flourish in saline environments. They are prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Examples of halophiles are brine shrimp, the larvae of brine flies, and even green alga.

extreme halophile
These kind of organisms are classified into a domain called Archaea. These organisms are all prokaryotic and usually are found in extreme environmental places. Some of these are called: thermoacidophile (live in very hot and acidic environments), halophile (live in extremely salty environments) and methanogen (live in environment with high methanes).
Archaebacteria, or ancient bacteria, are actually quite different compared to normal, or eubacteria. These bacteria are usually found in extreme environments such as very saline (halophile) areas or places containing abundant methane (methanophile) or high temperature (thermophile).
