If the fish are an Estuarine species it is possible that they could be slowly and gently converted to live in fresh water.

If they are true marine fish from the Ocean, then they will never live in fresh water no matter what you do.

When making salt water for marine fish what ratio of water to salt do you need to keep the fish healthy?
One pound of salt for every one gallon of fresh water. Also, as the water evaporates, add only fresh water...and slowly! When I kept fish, I would drain half of the remaining water, then mix in the fresh water, then put the mixture back into the tank. This prevents the fish from getting a fresh water shock. The water will evaporate and leave the salt behind, so if you add more salt, it will be too much.
