Yup, there are certain plants that do well in brackish water. The biggest thing is to acclimate them slowly, the same way you would fish. Here's a link with a list of plants and a deeper explanation of how to prepare them.

Not many live plants will survive a SG higher than 1.005. I wouldn't waste your time or money. In addition, when the plants "rot" in the salt, they will foul the water.

What kind of puffer?
