There are quite a few Aquatic creatures in 5e, but (at least per their history in prior editions) they don't all thrive or live in the same kind of water. Koa-Toa, for instance, only seem to live in freshwater pools (and underground, at that), whereas I believe Sahuagin are only found in the seas, which is saltwater. Sadly, the DMG fails to differentiate between these two watery environments or specific what creature goes in which type, except by inference. Also, it doesn't state what happens in a creature that is native to saltwater goes into a freshwater environment, or visa-versa.
So, does anybody have (or care to make) a list showing what Aquatic critters belong where? The categories would be Freshwater, Saltwater, and Any (for creatures that thrive in either type of water).
Also, this isn't a 5e book, but I think the 3.5 book "Stormwrack" had a rule stating penalties for creatures entering the wrong type of water - anybody have this book and care to quote it (or summarize if a direct quote would violate copyright)?
