My brother wants to get a freshwater pufferfish but we can't find any information on them. Does anyone have this information?
FW puffer fish info?

Check out this site www.dwarfpuffers.com . I think this is a great site on FW dwarfpuffers. I have a 10g tank set up in my bedroom for them but I'm at the end of my fishless cycle and also waiting for my pet store to get some in.. This site has been a BIG help...

Careful, neither of those are really fresh water AFAIK. Most puffers are SW or brackish at least. Dwarf Puffers are really the only FW puffers.

Figure 8 puffers are brackish water; GSPs, which are not T. fluviatilis but T nigroviridis, and are BW to SW. T. fluviatilis is the Ceylon puffer, also BW to SW, larger and gentler than the GSP.
There are many true FW puffers. The dwarf puffer is certainly not the only one.

On the General forum there you will find a partial list of FW and BW puffers.

Thank you. I thought these were brackish water but I wasn't sure.
Thanks for the info. I'll pass it along.
