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.
Behind the flap of skin that covers them, it is also above the heart.

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.
That is a hard but flexible cover which, in bony fish, forms the outer wall of the gill chamber. It protects the gills and also plays a major role in the pumping mechanism that regulates the continuous flow of water over them.
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 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.
1 time a second
a puffin can fly 48 to 55mph by flapping their wings 400 times per minute.
90 times per secondI learned this in First Grade. A ladybug beats its wings 90 times every second; also 2,700 a minute; and 162,000 times an hour.
Hummingbirds
Around 40-50 times per second. So 2 400-3 000 times per minute.
