Question
Jennifer, do you know anything about breeding green spotted puffer fish, and breeding their food.

Answer
As far as I know there has been no success in breeding puffers in a tank environment. As for their food, it is probably best that they be fed a variety of frozen meaty marine food rather than live only. They are not picky eaters and as long as you are feeding foods like krill or mysis shrimp with the shells still on you will be okay. It is more trouble than it is worth to breed your own food when there are plenty of choices out there for them to eat.
