Has anyone successfully acclimated Poecilia reticulata to a saltwater tank with a specific gravity of 1.024? I have tried to slowly acclimate dozens over the course of one to three months trying different methods but have not been able to get them passed a sg of 1.015. They either get stressed and stop eating and swimming normally, or have died rapidly at the 1.015 mark. Should I keep trying but try to acclimate them at an even slower rate, or just leave them in their freshwater tanks?
