If i have researched right, Most brackish fish can be kept in full salt aswell. So it is pretty much pointless to make the change.

brackish fish can live in saltwater or freshwater for some time, even life moderately long lives. however saltwater fish cannot live in brackish water, nor can freshwater fish
The specific gravity of brackish water, i head wavers from 1.008-1.018 so the live rock and sand may or may not adjust to the change

The organisms in your live rock/sand will almost certainly die off in brackish level salinity, however if you lower the Sg no more than ~.001-.002 per week you should be able to keep maintain beneficial bacteria colonies.
