anyways, I just bought a Fugu Puffer and the LFS told me that it is a freshwater puffer. After doing my own research on the net, I am even more confused. Some say its saltwater, some say it is freshwater, and some say brackish. I am currently keepin it in a freshwater, but i want to find out for sure before it dies, and i cannot return it u know ahahah. ALso, i read it has to be fed shellfish from time to time to file down their teeth, cuz if it grows to big, they cannot eat, is this true? and instead of shellfish, is there a substitute that will help file down the teeth? If anyone has owned one, your opinions and tips will be appreciated! thanks.
 
Which fugu is it? Crustaceons are the main staple for most puffers. What are you feeding it?
