What water balance problem to salt ocean fish face?

Lets See If This Answers Your Question... Fresh Water Fish have A Liver That Can Process All Kinds of Stuff From Fresh Water. Wether It Be Dirty Water, Clean Water, or Sometimes Even Slightily Toxic Water... But The Transition To Fresh To Salt Lies In The Very Word Itself, SALT WATER...

The Same With Salt Water Fish, They Can Not Process Fresh Water Because their Livers Are Only Made To Process Salt Not Fresh... Some Fish Actually Can Do Both Like The BULL SHARK, Salman, (not a fish) Salt Water Crocidile...
