Most (98%) will die and almost all will die if the change is made quickly. Salt water fish actually drink the salt water, excrete the salt, and are left with unsalted water in their body; they do this because the sea water, through the process of osmosis, draws out water from the body. When they are placed in fresh water, they continue to drink the water, but since the water is now less saline that the fish, water is no longer being drawn out, and in most cases (especially if the transfer was too quick), will start absorbing water, hence they will typically die.

Yes, since the oceans are salt water, and these jellyfish live in the oceans, these jellyfish live in salt water. A=B, B=C, so this means that A=C. This is called substitution. First, logically it is substitution. Second, mathematically, it is substitution. The "immortal jellyfish," Turritopsis dohrnii, probabably originated in the Caribbean seas. T. dohrnii spread all over the world and commonly live in the Mediterranean Sea and the seas of Japan. These seas are most definitely salt water.
