does anyone know if these fish can live in brackish water?

Not at all. Cool fish though.

i really want some of those fishes

They make chirping sounds with their pectoral fins.

yeah i used to have one in my bedroom back when i was pretty young. I could hear it chirping at night every now and again. Pretty cool

Yes, they are very cool. I have a pair of them, large and very, very fat. They eat anything that fits into their mouth, and I can tell you that that mouth can take a lot bigger things than it looks like. And they make noise. At first I thought there was something wrong with their tank. But I finally realized that it was the fish that was the noisy one. The first time I had to take one out of the water, I almost threw it away in fear, as the sound they made above water was really scary. But I love them to bits. BTW, I have the striped one. And you just have to love this face:

Whatta face!
