Halophiles are able to withstand extremely salty conditions. Their environment goes beyond the saltiness of the ocean. They use chemicals inside them to keep the amount of salt at a certain amount so they remain stable and able to live in a salty environment. A body of water that halophiles are found in is the Great Salt Lake in Utah. As you can see from the picture below, the halophiles have turned the banks of the lake red.
