When I bought him he was already in salt. But, from what I read, they naturally migrate from fresh through brackish to marine as they age. I didn’t. When I bought him he was already in salt.

My GSP has not touched any snails or crabs in my tank. However, when I added four cleaner shrimp, it immediately went after one and took off an antenna immediately. I thought they were all goners and was regretting the loss, when something amazing happened. My other fish including the large powder blue tang, muscled between the gsp and the shrimp and protected the shrimp. The GSP must have figured it out because all four shrimp have survived for 6 months now and have peacefully coexisted with my GSP! Actually, I should amend this statement.

I taught mine to jump out of the water by holding a piece of krill slightly above the water. It is true they are exactly like a dog. These fish are amazing and smart too.

It has been the perfect tankmate. I have a ton of SPS, LPS and softies along with a few anemones and its not bothered anything! I have to be honest, I have not seen my GSP nip at anything in my tank.

I currently have 3 GSP's, and im in the process of converting it to full salt, I was wondering which corals I could introduce that the GSP's wont nip at. also, any recomendations on cool tank mates? I have a 40gallon breeder. how did the puffer end up working with your corals.
