-
Tank Size: Provide a tank of at least 30 gallons for a single Green Spotted Puffer. A larger tank is preferable as they grow.
-

-
Filtration: Use efficient filtration to ensure excellent water quality and strong water movement. Puffers are sensitive to poor water conditions.
-
Aquascape: Create an environment with live or artificial plants, rocks, and hiding spots. Green Spotted Puffers need a lot of open swimming space and hiding places.
-
Tank Mates: Green Spotted Puffers can be aggressive, especially towards their own kind. They are best kept in a species-only tank or with larger, robust tankmates.
