Different kinds of fish vary in their oxygen demands. In respiration, a human, in good health, takes about 20 to 25 times a minute, while some fish contrast between 12 to 150 breaths per minute. If the fish is exerting itself, or if the oxygen is low in the water, the inhaling goes faster (like a runner after finishing the mile).

How can you measure respiration accurately?
It is hypothesized that fish have higher respiration rates in warmer water because metabolic rates are faster in a warmer climate for exotherms. Results show that the respiration rate of fish was greater in the 76 degree Fahrenheit tank (mean=203 breaths per minute) than in the 71 degree Fahrenheit tank (mean=79 breaths per minute) (p=0.04). Another trend observed is that , although not significant, was that smaller fish have a higher respiration rate than larger fish in both temperatures (p=0.19).
