Green Spotted Puffers are known for their distinctive appearance with bright green and black spots. Despite their sizes, they require a spacious tank. They have a unique requirement for water quality transitions from freshwater as juveniles to brackish or even marine as adults. Personality-wise, they can be aggressive and are best housed alone unless in very large, well-monitored aquariums.
