Re: F8 tank mates
Absolutely no monos in there. They grow as large as your outstretched hand, need to be in a school, which would require a 300+g tank & they go into SW as adults.

Re: F8 tank mates
Scats are among the few fish that are messier than puffers or Oscars. They should be species-only, in very large tanks.
