    Way too many fish for an 8 gal! 20 gal would possibly allow it, but certainly not an 8 gal.

    I have red scooters in my 90 gallon and they are really active hunting all day long (and they eat prepared). I couldn't imagine one in 8 gallons....

    I have a scooter blenny in my 35 gallon tank, he loves to "scoot" around the tank, going trought my live rock made caves, trought the sand, he never stops in one place more than 30 seconds.

    I guess thats why its called a scooter blenny, and i couldn't imagine one scooting around a 8 gallon tank, Clowns are also recommended to be kept in 10 gallon+ min. tanks.
