Well now i know they eventually are converted to salt water so i was wondering is there any possible tank mates for them? I also happened to see a dog face puffer today at a lfs, anyone know anything about them?

If you're talking permananet, no. GSP's get more intolerant of tankmates as they age. The dogface is generally peaceful.

There are not any tankmates that can follow them into SW. When younger, my GSPs ate bumblebee & knight gobies--they are sedentary fish. Now that my adults are in SW, they can live w/lots of fast-moving fish. I have damsels, a tomato clown & have had a wrasse in there. Unfortunately, the giant red hairy hermit crabs ate all my smaller fish, including the beautiful wrasse.

They're in a 55g, but I wish I had them in a 90 or even 125g.
