Nope they are fine in fresh, you make the water more brackish as they mature. People have had them in fresh for a few years happily tho before.
I cant member the number your ment to group as they can be little bggers think its two or 3.
It would look ace tho the little caves and plants etc.
Puffers are such little characters too i want one but the witches would probably munch it
