Why would a freshwater aquarium be dangerous for saltwater fish?
The density and pressure of saltwater is different from freshwater as is much of the bacterias and parasites. The acidity of the water is also of concern as the lower the PH the higher the acidity of the water. Saltwater being of a higher PH would not handle the lower PH of freshwater very well. Also if moving a freshwater fish to saltwater that fish will lose a great amount of water in it's body causing death and if the saltwater fish is moved to freshwater it will gain great amounts of water causing death.
What do bony fish that love live in freshwater use to get rid of excess water?
Bony fish that live in freshwater typically face the challenge of excess water entering their bodies due to osmosis, as the surrounding water is less saline than their bodily fluids. To eliminate this excess water, they utilize specialized kidneys that excrete large volumes of dilute urine. Additionally, they actively absorb salts from their environment through their gills to help maintain osmotic balance. This combination of urinary excretion and salt uptake allows them to thrive in freshwater habitats.
