Archer fish... fun tank mate ideas

[rainyost]

hey, i am interested in getting a few archer fish for my 110g tank.
Not too familiar with brackish fish. Just wondering what some tank mates would be. i like to have variety in my tanks and any suggestions would be appreciated.
Also any suggestions of plants suitable for brackish water would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rj

Scats are a really cool brackish fish you often see with archers in tanks

orange chromides, bumble bee gobies, sailfin mollies. green spotted puffers.

Problem with scats and monos is that they need full sea water to thrive when they are older, from what i have heard.

Plants, tough one. Mangroves?

I'd be worried about spotted puffers nipping at them, but otherwise I agree.

Mangroves are your best bet for plants, and I could be wrong about this, but aren't there some kinds of sea-weed like things that can go in brackish? Depending how salty.

true about the nipping... capurla algae?
