Brackish converted to Marine.

[WIfishman]

Hello everyone... fairly new to this site, don't know how i survived without it

I've had a 29 gal. brackish tank for some time now, and the wife and I were picking up some fish food at a lfs and came across a Russell's Lionfish and we just had to have it (the price was right, have pics in my gallery). At the time we only had a 15 gal. marine tank and he just wouldn't be comfortable so i decided to raise the salinity...slowly...in the brackish tank. At the time I had: 2 bumblebee gobys, a green scat, a green spotted pufferfish, and a moray eel. Durring the process the fish all faired well.
Everyone is doing great, it's been about 6 months.

Has this been done before? Have there been any problems with the fish afterwards?? Was just wondering if I'm harming the brackish fish in any way.

This is not surprising at all. In fact, most brackish fish spend the majority of their adult lives in pure marine water, particularly your scat and moray.
