I have read the figure 8 puffer can live in freshwater as well as saltwater. If they do please tell me some info
In the wild they mostly live in extremely hard freshwater(near impossible to make water that hard in captivity). But they have to go in higher salinities for food/shelter/mating/etc. F8s have been found in a wide range of salinity. They've been found in the ocean even! I don't think they live there for extended periods of time, maybe to get needed resources or if they get displaced because of extreme conditions inland.TypicalAqua said:I have read the figure 8 puffer can live in freshwater as well as saltwater.
