Answer:
Prawns will tolerate partially saline water (reports indicate that they have been experimentally cultured at up to 10 ppt; however, they do not grow so well at this salinity).

- Prawn survival rates ranged from 91% (at 0 ppt) to 78% (at 78 ppt) (at 20 ppt).
- At salinities ranging from 0 to 15 ppt, the prawn grew and lived adequately, implying that the species may be economically cultivated across a broad salinity range.
- The species rosenbergii is an excellent candidate for propagation.
- They can handle freshwater, brackish water, and saltwater environments, in contrast to stenohaline species, which, as previously noted, cannot cope with a wide range of salinity levels.
