What’s probably happening to animals who live in freshwater after hurricane Ian?

Specifically, alligators and other freshwater animals that now might be in brackish water after the salt water has been brought to places more inland.

I guess maybe some of the normally brackish waters are more diluted after all of the rainfall?

What’s the tolerance for various water animals regarding the salinity of the waters they live in?

What about plants that live in water?
