This really depends on the species of the fish, what kind of fish it is, and its age. But fish in the wild and domestically-bred fish will react differently to a new environment. Fish that have lived in tanks tend to adapt better to a new environment (ex. When a tank is changed/cleaned) than wild fish who are used to some certain things in their environment. ~ Hexedgirl92
