spotted puffer is freshwater? would it only be one to a tank, not even any of its own?

honestly, they may or may not be the same thing. and the same goes for freshwater vs. brackish. common names mean almost nothing, especially without pictures to aid in confirmation.

Thats the one that was listed under tropical as a spotted puffer but it looks like a brackish green spotted puffer

Well brackish fish are still tropical, as are some marines. I think tropical is counting on the water temp rather than anything else.

Anyway, yes, I think that is a GSP, and is brackish, but a lot of people keep them in marine.
