After being corrected recently, the dwarf puffer is reported to be purely freshwater, I was under the mistaken impression that they were all brackish.

A reminder to use caution:  These little monsters are all pure carnivores, in case you're not aware.  They can/will nip fins of almost any tank mates.  You can check other recent threads about puffers as well for additional info.
