GSP in a 400g with 2 scats? Good idea, bad idea?

So that's my question. I have two scats living on freshwater still, but I want to move them to a better home soon.
I bought them back when I thought fish store-employees knew something about fish. They told me they would grow to 5 inches. But when I invest in a 400 or 500gallon tank(which I believe is the minimum), I would like a puffer in there. Considering their allmost identical needs in terms of water and such, I thought a gsp would be perfect.

The scats seem seriously tough fish, but I know how gsp's are so.... Do you guys think they would be cool?

400G ? Surely you mean 400 litres? If you get a 400G they'd barely ever bump into each other!

If you are upgrading tanks then i'd get a couple more scats as they are schooling fish and one of the 2 can become a bit too dominant and aggressive in pairs.

As to the question I believe that they'd probably be fine together as long as the tank is large enough, scats aren't the quickest of fish but they are probably big and robust enough to handle a GSP

I think if you can find more adult GSPs they would be less likley to be picked on by the aggressive scats.

I did actually mean gallons... A scat grows to a foot long, and I think fish that size should be in nature instead of in a tank. But considering the fact I bought them(being mis-informed), I believe I should do anything to take care of them well... I'm not too scared for the puffer, more for the scats. I mean right now they are in my community tank with a whole lot of dp's(about 13), and allthough they might bother them once in a while, they've made no casualties...
