So I have a freshwater aquarium that I have 6 guppies, 6 nerite snails and I want to get 6 bumblebee gobys I have read that bumblebee goby’s do better with salt In thier tank and I was wondering what is the highest Bumblebee Gobies, Guppies, and Nerites can go.

I can't speak to the guppies or merited but I'm pretty sure the bumblebees are brackish only with a tolerance not higher than 1.010sg (middle brackish). That's what I read and that's what I kept mine in after an arduous acclimation because they came from a few system. Maybe others have done higher but I haven't read anyone doing them in full salinity if that's what you're hoping.

Thanks I have read this but I wanted to see if there was anyone with experience before doing it
 
Not sure if you still need an answer on this. However Nerites can adapt to a wide variety of salinity (anywhere from totally fresh to reef levels of salt)

As for the guppies, livebearers like a small amount of salt however they are not brackish fish so i would keep it fresh if the guppies are going to be in the tank.
