How long can a fish stay in its bag that the workers put it in at the store?
As long as is necessary for the water temperatures to equalise. I would float the bag in the tank for at least an hour if the fish is not showing signs of distress. If it is distressed I would add some water to the bag every 5 minutes or so to speed things up a bit and then I would pour the bag water through a net into a bucket and place the fish from the net into the tank without adding the water from the bag to the tank.
What is a pregnant fish called?
There is no such thing as a pregnant goldfish. They are egg layers and so do not get pregnant. Gravid is the term used to describe an impregnated female livebearer and does not correctly refer to any species of egg laying fish. Gravid can not be used in reference to a goldfish. ** Gravidity, in essence, refers to "heavy with young" regardless if the organism is viviparous, oviparous, or ovoviviparous. According to Miriam-Webster online dictionary, this term is acceptable to define condition of any sexual reproductive product. It also specifically refers to "a gravid fish" as being full of eggs. Please refer to provided examples below. Granted, some sources define gravidity as "an implanted uterus" only, but the cited Example #2 below is inclusive of eggs as a means of development and delivery. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/gravidgravid Top of Form

Describe coastal upwelling and the effect it has on fish populations?
Cooler deep ocean water contains many nutrients. When this water rises, due
to upwelling, these nutrients rise to the ocean's surface. These nutrients can
then feed fish, providing large regions of successful coastal fisheries.

How fish communicate with other fishes?
Senses play an important part in fish communication. Visual communication is important to most fish. Body movements, postures, colors and color patterns are the primary means of visual communication. Sound is also used for communication. Sounds are produced by grinding teeth, flexing or contracting muscles and vibrating the swim bladder. Fish also communicate by releasing chemicals called PHEROMONES. These are chemical signals produced by an animal that, when released, influence the behavior of others of the same species. The sense of smell is important for this form of communication. But fish do not have a language so Finding Nemo can be misleading.

Why do fish bleed when caught?
apparently if a fish is bleeding from the gills it means there is not enough oxygen. Or because a previous fish had died in the same water and you havent changed it. The bacteria can spread throughout the water while the fish is swimming causing it to get infected. You might have a very dirty tank. that is also important to clean HALF of it if it very dirrty. But usually i would clean my tank every 2 weeks MAX and make sure only to get around 25 percent out.

Do dwarf puffer fish eat goldfish?
They might eat the fry, but most fish will eat the fry. My dwarf puffer lives with a school of tetras and has never caused them any problems. Goldfish get big by comparison and are fiercely competitive for food. It is much more likely that the puffer is in danger of starvation by domination of the goldfish.
Pufferfish are omnivores, eating both algae and crustaceans.

What fish lives longest in a regular fish bowl with no filters?
This list is going to be absolutely massive. There are literally thousands of fish that people put in aquariums, so I will list some of the most common by family and a few characteristics.
Goldfish
This ageless aquarium favourite has now been bred to include black, white, red and patched varieties as well as the timeless rusty gold. Goldfish are coldwater fish, and can tolerate a wide range of pH, temperature and salinity, making them ideal for beginners and low-tech setups.
Livebearers
My personal favourites, the family Poecilidae includes guppies, Endler's livebearers, swordtails, platies and mollies (as well as less colourful wild species.) The female livebearer gives birth to up to a hundred fry every month, which are freeswimming from birth. They are easy to breed and I'm currently overrun with platy fry.
Guppies especially are very hardy and tolerant, and are favourites for children and beginners. Platies are also very tough and are prettier than guppies in my opinion. They are my favourite fish. Swordtails, mollies and endlers are touchier and require more complex setups.
Corydoras
This catfish family is a big favourite for keeping a large aquarium clean. They are active schooling catfish, very easy to breed. The albino variety in particular is very attractive. Pygmy varieties have been bred
Plecos
The plecostemus is HOT. That's the only way to put it. Most of these fish grow very big - around 30-40cm - but there are plenty of plecos suitable for large community aquariua. Plecos are catfish. The bristlenose catfish is a small pleco species.
Angelfish
Angels can be delicate, and are not good for beginners. They can also be aggressive, and will eat tetras. They are very attractive, and a good addition to a community aquarium that does not contain tetras if kept alone.
Tetras
These small, colourful fish are very attractive and very much favourites in a community aquarium. They are not very tough, and it's easy to kill them with a sudden shock like a temperature change or a pH jump.
