can guppies live in saltwater?

Not that I know of. Are you talking about full blown 1.024 salinity or just adding some aquarium salt for FW tanks?

If the higher salinity dont get them the puffer will.

Mollies can be acclimated. Guppies can be acclimated to brackish.

Brackish ain't full-blow saltwater (SG 1.026 or so) though, right?

Melouse58 beat me to it though - even if it did make it, that puffer would have fun with it for a few days I think before it ended up as a feeder fish.
