Also, if the world was flooded, how was the salt/sea water and fresh water kept separate? Today we have species of Fresh water fish and species of Salt/Sea water fish. There are also a few that can tolerate both to some extent. But, there are others that will die immediately if the salinity of the water is changed just a little bit. So, given that, the two types of water would have had to have been separated by something if the world were flooded. What separated them? Say the waters were allowed to mix and a lot of fish died. How would you account for the species of fish alive today that couldn't have made it through a flood? A second fish creation? Or do you submit that it is possible for speciation (evolution of new species) to occur?

Well, most fish didn't survive. In fact, if you'd been a diver in the oceans before the flood, and then you'd been saved on the Ark and had started diving again after the flood, you would've said something like, "What happened? Where's everything gone?" You see, most marine species were killed during the flood. Now certainly some fish did survive, and we see their descendants in the oceans today. Some people then ask a related question; "How did freshwater fish survive in the saltwater oceans?" There are two possibilities. First, there are many areas in the world today where we see freshwater and salt water together, and the two waters don't mix. So it's possible that certain organisms survived in pockets of fresh or salt water. Second, because of natural selection, which creationists accept, organisms today have become very specialized. Organisms at the time of the flood, however, would've been much stronger and able to tolerate many more changes than they can today. There's really no problem at all in answering this question.

Checked this out and the answer's as bogus as a three dollar bill. I n churning waters of a world flood on the magnitude that is described in the bible you wouldn't have fresh and salt water that would not mix. In situations where there are layers of water mixing today, the lower layers do not support much life. In sediments they produce black shales without fossils.

Even before this question can be answered well, there is a bigger question. Where is the evidence of a world catastrophic flood? There is none. Almost all of the sedimentary rocks of the world show a cyclic deposition of sandstone, shale limestone and coal. None of these are flood deposited in a catastrophic event. The limestone is often hundreds of feet thick and shows millions of years of the growth of coral reefs.
