I dont see reason you couldnt convert it over to salt.Tell us a little more about what you've for filtration and we should be able help you make a smooth transition.

For sure, you can convert it to saltwater. You would have to buy all new equipment though. Really the only thing that translates from freshwater to saltwater is the tank itself. Saltwater requires different types of filtration and lighting.
