Juvenile brown flounder were studied to see how they grow in low salt conditions. They were kept in low salt for different lengths of time, then put back in normal salt water. The flounder were smaller in low salt only after 1 week. Their growth rate was different in the 3rd and 5th weeks. They ate less in low salt, but didn't eat more when back in normal salt. Overall, their food conversion was slightly better in low salt. In the end, being in low salt for a short time didn't affect the flounder's growth in the long run.
