Default FW Puffer acclimated to SW doing just fine

I had aquired a Green Leopard Spot Puffer a few months back, and after
a bit of reading up on it, found out its really a sal****er fish. I
set out to acclimate it over a period of time from FW to SW. It has
been in 1.025/026 SG water for some time now and does not even compare
to what it looked like in FW..



How fast did you do it? (ie: how much salt added to how much water over
what period of time?)

I tried doing this myself TWICE, and each time puffie died after about 1
week, way before I got anywhere near 1.025.
