A fishes breathing rate varies just as yours does. It depends on the temperature of the water and the amount of Oxygen that is available plus the amount of excercise or excitement/fright the fish is experiencing.
It all depends on the amount of oxygen in the water. If the water is low on oxygen then a fish must work harder to get the oxygen it needs so it will flap it's gill more often.
They could well be spawning at this time of year.
Behind the flap of skin that covers them, it is also above the heart.

The scientific name for the gill cover in fish is "operculum." It is a bony flap that helps protect the delicate gills and aids in the process of respiration by regulating water flow over the gills.

well depending how long they live for? one second they can flap their wings 90 times per second so you do the math per minute 60x90= 5400 times in a minute. so you can work the rest out! Hope i Helped your question!
The difference between a male goldfish and a female is that the female is usually bigger and in spring and the male gains a white pimple type substance on it's gill flap also the female is more of a gold color and the the male is a silver color.
a puffin can fly 48 to 55mph by flapping their wings 400 times per minute.
The speed at which a bird flaps its wings varies significantly by species. For instance, small birds like hummingbirds can flap their wings at an astonishing rate of about 50 to 80 times per second, which translates to approximately 3,000 to 4,800 flaps per minute. Larger birds, such as eagles or pigeons, typically flap their wings much slower, averaging around 10 to 15 flaps per second, which equates to about 600 to 900 flaps per minute.
A gill flap is a protective covering that helps regulate water flow over the gills of some aquatic animals, like fish and mollusks. It helps filter out debris and prevents damage to the delicate gill filaments.
