The Green Spotted Puffer is a highly intelligent and interactive species covered in bright green spots over a pale body. Juveniles are often found in freshwater, but adults require increasingly brackish conditions and eventually thrive in marine environments. Their teeth grow continuously and require hard-shelled foods to prevent overgrowth.
