Thank you so much! I believe it is now looking at pictures on the web.
8 figures are braxish water puffers. (Salt water freshwater mix)
And Eyespot Puffer is the same thing as a Figure 8 puffer.
A good salinity is 1.010 for it, yet juvenile fish can tolerate freshwater. If your going to keep it (which I recommend as they're full of personality) a 20 gallon will be large enough to accommodate one but a 23 gallon would be even better as they get to be around 8cm, shellfish is a must with this fish as the beak grows and regularly needs to be fed shellfish to keep 'trim' back the beak, crab legs, snails will work. A small canister may be needed because of this but may not be necessary just pick up the best deal you can find for a larger filter. Does look like it's in nice condition, you could use the 10g as a grow out and set up the 20g in the meantime, waiting for it to cycle.
How long do you say in able to keep it in a 10 gallon. I do have a 20 gallon thats currently being occupied by a hamster but ive been contemplating moving it for awhile now so i can use the 20 gallon for fish. Also, ive been feeding the puffer brine shrimp regularly so do you have a reccomendation on what type of filter would be good for the 20 gallon and also what type of snails i should get? Im also having trouble finding aquarium salt so do you have any recommendations for that as well?
