Please return your new puffer to the store until you do enough reading to know how to care for it properly.

I understand that, but you still don't have proper test kits and a GSP is a tough first puffer, let alone first fish. Even if you've had fish before, you obviously didn't do any testing or monitoring, which spells death for your puffer. Also, I'm sure your tank isn't 'cycled', which also means your puffer will die. Please take it back, read read and read some more, and then consider an easier puffer to start with.

that's not a good plan IMO. You have tonnes of learning to do and it's not fair to that puffer to have to wait. I stick by my above post.

Where are you keeping them? They grow quite large.
How old are you & where are you from?
