Tetraodon sabahensis is a species of pufferfish endemic to Indonesia. This species grows to a standard length of 10 in (25 cm).^[1]

Also called the "giant spotted puffer" or the "Saba puffer"^[2] the juvenile fish look much like T. nigroviridis, the green spotted puffer, and both can live 15 years in an aquarium. Though the giant green spotted puffer seems to prefer a much lower salinity as an adult. It is safe to keep T. sabahensis at a salinity of 1.004 or half-brackish.
