I’ve been keeping them for years and can attest to the intelligence of these fish!This is why I would also recommend some sort of stimulation for a GSP. I think you need to move forward with your plan to re-home them ASAP. The tank and accessories are the same as you'd use for tropical fish (unless you planned to go full-marine someday), you need a few more accessories, and you'll spend a little more on food.Hey Eric. Wide and deep tanks are better than tall skinny tanks. One site I think you might check out is monsterfishkeepers(dot)com.
@ Cmoreno: If you intend to have a community tank, you are right: Don't buy a green spotted puffer!

Thanks for the kind words!
Good luck!I recently purchased a pair of juvenile GSPs, they came from a freshwater tank. I bought a green spotted puffer a few years ago. Spotted puffers are not a beginner's fish. There are some variations throughout this fish's very wide range. Sometimes, a LOT of noise! In some cases it can even be fatal for your fish. Good luck, whatever you decide!So are there any good tank mates for these at all or do I need to try something else like the figure eight puffers? @peachpurple: Green Spotted Puffers do. WARNING: If you give them a toy like I describe, they will make noise! His water is all where it's suppose to be. Or will it hurt my GSP? The Green Spotted Puffer is a highly unique and interesting fish. We have 380-aquariums with lots-and-lots of popular aquarium fish plus lots-and-lots of rare fish! This website is owned and operated by the Bailey Brothers, DrTom and Nevin, who've been together in the fish business for more than 50-years. I said to increase salinity as the puffer ages. With a little perseverance, he may still be able to get the snail out of there and eat it, but he will miss out on the benefit of the hard shell wearing away at the plate in his mouth.When your GSP is a baby it can eat every day, but as it gets older you should move to an alternate day feed/fast schedule.
I figured I got a sick one so went to get another one and purchased 3 other fish along with my new puffer. Plus, there are few that can live in the brackish conditions.
If possible therefore, keep green spotted puffer fish by themselves.The fish eats quite a lot. A good brackish setup is needed for health and longevity of the GSP. These are:This fish does not have scales hence prone to illness. I have a 75 gallon and I don't intend to waste all that space for such small fish.That's awesome Dmitry!
The green spotted puffer (GSP) is a fish with unique needs and care requirements. I said to use marine salt not aquarium salt. Keep this in mind when picking out a tank. UV lights to me are a must have with any fish tank, Just don't over use them. While the stress may or may not be warranted, it is felt by the fish all the same. If you don’t know how to cycle your tank you need to do some research and make sure this is accomplished before you bring your new fish home.Because most puffers are wild-caught, be on the lookout for parasites.
I'd start from the ground up and check your water parameters, tank arrangement, his feeding schedule, filter strength (if he is healthy he should have no trouble keeping clear of the filter but if he is ill he may be struggling to stay out of the intake.
Description. FYI - Figure 8s are a little smaller but have many of the same issues as GSPs. In fact this species does better when there are three or more. It's a site that specializes in exotic fish, and there is a community there where you can discuss any questions or problems you have.You can certainly ask me anything as well. His name is georgie. The tank conditions should be just right to ensure it is healthy. As time goes on you can increase the amount you are adding until they are in brackish conditions (~1.004 - 1.022 sp gravity) as adults. Saw them today and fell in love. Fish come in varieties and share some characteristics with other marine animals. You can introduce a little bit of sea salt when you do water changes. The largest part of their diet is crustaceans. The pug-dog like face, protruding eyes and an almost frog-like appearance give it a peculiar look, all the reason to keep it as a pet.
