Red Scat

Facts and Information

red scat

The Red Scat is bronze to reddish colored fish with dark spots covering the entire body. As the Scat matures, it takes on a humpback appearance and the spots on the body become darker. The Red Scat spawns in the saltwater of the ocean, but the difference between the sexes and their breeding habits are unknown. Gradual change from brackish to saltwater will maximize the coloration and the health of the fish as they become older. The Scat should be fed mainly vegetable based foods with meaty foods offered on occasion. Feed dried seaweed, lettuce, algae, quality flake food and occasionally brine shrimp.
