I would say that the most preferred way is to consult the easily available databases and sources on all things concerned with sharks. After only a short time studying this material, you will come to the realization that sharks have long been established as an ocean-going (salt water) species, and they do not exist in fresh water.

Do alligators fight sharks?

Do bull sharks live in coral reefs?
Bull sharks are a common and aggressive species that tends to live in highly populated areas such as tropical shorelines. They like shallow waters and are likely the kind of sharks that attack humans most. Bull sharks can live in freshwater or saltwater and do tend to live in some rivers and lakes as long as they are deep enough (about 150 meters). They can live in the coral reef areas at times if it is close enough to the shorelines.
Do sharks drink water?
Sharks are filter feeders and sieve tiny bits of plankton and small animals from the water through the gills as they swim with wide-open mouths. They do not drink water. The blood and tissues of sharks are salty containing high levels of urea, and other salts. Sharks basically are saltier than the sea. Sharks absorb pure water from the sea by Osmosis (through their gills). It's a process where water flows across a semi permeable membrane from an area of higher concentration of water to an area of lower concentration to equalize concentration levels. Sharks can secrete extra salts through their rectal gland. Most sharks can't live in fresh water with the exception of bull sharks which can lower their salt level to enter into fresh water.
