Green Spotted Puffers have unusual salt requirements, while they can be kept in freshwater for a very short time when young, they need to be acclimated to brackish, and eventually full marine conditions to survive. Because of this, and their huge space requirement (30+gallons per fish) there isn't much that can be kept with them.

See: http://greenspottedpuffer.net/tankmates.htm that's is a very good site to go to a nother site is http://www.thepufferforum.com/forum/ u will need to feed them a viriety of foods. 0-2in pifers should be fed every day.3-4 in puffers should be fed every other day. 5+in puffers should be fed every 3-4 days this maybe hard because they will beg. but if u feed them to much u can kill them. only feed them till there bellys r slightly rounded.

u will need to feed them piecise of scalop, crab legs n osters from ur local grocerie store. also gut loaded ghost shrimp, brine shrimp, blood worms,and most importent snails. snails r vital for puffers it helps keep there teth trimbed down.

Can an angelfish get hurt if you put a green spotted puffer fish with it?

Yes, an angelfish can get hurt if kept with a green spotted puffer fish. Puffers are known to be territorial and can exhibit aggressive behavior, especially if they feel threatened or are in a confined space. Additionally, the puffer's beak-like teeth can cause injury to the angelfish, leading to stress or physical harm. It's generally best to avoid housing these two species together to ensure the safety and well-being of both fish.
