Which would you choose and why?

What size tank I had available would determine it for me. Ceylons grow to 8" vs. GSP 6". 2" on a puffer is quite a bit of mass, and bioload.
Also what was available too. GSPs are pretty common, and ceylons are not.

What size would a ceylon need, and is their personality or behavior different. I know they are hard to come by, and my LFS has four of them, so I thought I would check into it.

I think they are prettier (mine had orange fins) & seem to have a little sweeter disposition. 40g would be good.

I got my GSP!! He was at walmart in a freshwater tank. I'm acclimating him right now.

He/she is hilarious. He/ she is staying just under the drip tubing and letting it pound him/her on the head.

Probably appreciates the good water.

It's pretty funny. He/she is completely covered with even perfect spots. He's missing one just on the top of his/her head (where the water was hitting)

I got him tp eat some bloodworms and a snail. I say he, because he ignores me and likes to look at his reflection in the glass. Any ideas for names?

Hope you have fun with your new GSP. IMHO your puff will totally change when the SG keeps going up.
