Animal Facts:

The Spotted Scat (Scatophagus argus), also known as the spotted butterfish or tiger scat, is a fascinating fish species found in the Indo-Pacific region, from Japan to Australia. This unique fish is known for its vibrant brown or reddish-brown spots, which inspired its name, referencing the mythical hundred-eyed giant, Argus, from Greek mythology.

Spotted scats live in estuaries, mangroves, and coastal waters, adapting well to different salinities. Interestingly, juveniles thrive in freshwater before moving to saltwater as they mature. Highly social, these fish form schools and prefer warm waters between 21–28°C (70–82°F).

Despite their name meaning "dung eater," studies suggest they are omnivorous, with adults favoring plant material and juveniles feeding on zooplankton. Their striking appearance and hardy nature also make them popular in the aquarium trade. But beware—their sharp spines can deliver a venomous sting, causing pain and dizziness. A hot water soak is the go-to remedy for such injuries!
