I am going to guess brackish because they are quite popular with the local fish shops, but again, a picture or even a description would help.
Does it look like this? Click or copy link below.

As said, depends on the species. You'll find most will tolerate brackish conditions, but there are definite brackish and definite freshwater species.
The most common is Toxotes jaculatrix, which is a brackish species and should be treated as such.
