There isn't really a blanket term that refers to an animal that lives in salt water as opposed to freshwater. A lot of the time, salt water wildlife is simply referred to as 'aquatic'. The closest term you're likely to find is 'marine', ie 'a marine aquarium'. Sometimes the world 'saltwater' is used, ie 'a saltwater aquarium', 'a saltwater invertebrate'. The most accurate terms are likely to reference specific saltwater environments, ie 'a reef fish', because there is a lot of difference between the warm, shallow salt water over a tropical reef and the cold, deep, fast-moving water of the deep oceans.
Another answer: The correct term is simply marine, which literally means 'of the sea.' Aquatic refers to water, both fresh water and salt water.
