Finished my dwarf puffer tank. I have two because I had to rescue them from Walmart! They were keeping 6 in a 3 gallon tank! It was horrible an they were with tetras! Their names are Lord Puffington and Lady Puffington one of them has been really feisty she's been swimming up and down the tank since I got them! Here's some pics. I used white gravel and some live plants :)

Sorry to say this, but you do not have dwarf puffers. You have green spotted puffers. You might want to google their care.
 
Thanks guys I just realized this abt an hour ago I will get them a way bigger tank and some snails to eat. Wish me good luck. Either way they will be better off with me than they were at Walmart...
 
Yes they are better in your care. Their life span will decrease dramatically in freshwater, but they might live ~5 years in freshwater. Perhaps if one day you are interested in saltwater, then I'd recommend to triple their life span.
