The spotted scat is a fish with a rectangular body covered in brown spots. It lives in shallow, muddy coastal waters across the Indo-Pacific, from the Persian Gulf to southeastern Australia. It can sting with small spines near its front, which makes it worth knowing about.1

It lives in sheltered, shallow coastal waters such as estuaries, harbours, mangrove pools and the lower parts of freshwater streams, especially where minerals are concentrated. Juveniles float in the surface film of the water.1

Adults eat a wide range of food, and a 1992 study of adults in the Philippines found they mainly ate plant matter. Juveniles prefer zooplankton, which are tiny animals that drift in the water.1

The spotted scat has small spines in its front parts that inject venom when it stings. The venom causes great pain and dizziness.1

Ni mu lore nit ñi?

Musiba ci nit: Dafay mettiMën na metti lool, waaye lu bon du faral di am.

Its sting causes great pain and dizziness. Some people catch and eat it in its native waters, so fishers and anyone handling the fish are most at risk of being stung.1

Treatment is often done by soaking the sting site in hot water.1

Xibaar

Young scats live in freshwater and move to saltwater as they mature.1

The spotted scat comes in two colour forms, a green scat and a ruby or red scat.1

Spotted scats live in schools.1

The spotted scat is a popular aquarium fish.1

Females become sexually mature at around 7 to 9 months old and about 150 g in weight, while males mature at a smaller size.1

Tasukatu léeb

Xalaat bu juum: Scats are named because they feed on dung and offal.

Dëgg: The name may be misleading. The habit of eating offal has not been confirmed in diet studies.1
