Fish

Fish survive in the ocean by their gills. Fish need oxygen too, just like many other living things. They do not breath the water. Their gills receive oxygen and they breath that way. that's why fish CAN live under water.

Deep-sea fish are fish that live in the darkness below the sunlit surface waters, that is below the epipelagic or photic zone of the sea. The lanternfish is, by far, the most common deep-sea fish. Other deep sea fish include the flashlight fish, cookiecutter shark, bristlemouths, anglerfish, and viperfish.Only about 2% of known marine species inhabit the pelagic environment. This means that they live in the water column as opposed to the benthic organisms that live in or on the sea floor.Deep-sea organisms generally inhabit bathypelagic (1000m-4000m deep) and abyssopelagic (4000m-6000m deep) zones. However, characteristics of deep-sea organisms, such as bioluminescence can be seen in the mesopelagic (200m-1000m deep) zone as well.

The cost of a Jack Dempsey fish can vary depending on factors such as size, quality, and where you purchase it from. On average, you can expect to pay around $10 to $20 for a juvenile or smaller Jack Dempsey, while larger or more mature individuals can cost upwards of $50 or more. It's important to purchase from a reputable source to ensure the health and quality of the fish.

A silver perch does not have silver in it's skin. The shiny iridescence of the silver perch's skin and of many scaly fish skin comes from photonic crystals made of guanine. These crystals, while atomically similar to crystals grown in the laboratory, microscopically are very different and form overlapping sheets giving the crystals maximum reflectance. Most researchers believe this shiny skin evolved to fool predators by reflecting light away from the fish, especially when close to the water surface.

Tuna need a suitable environment with access to food, such as smaller fish and plankton, to survive. Additionally, they require clean, oxygenated water with the appropriate temperature range for their species. Tuna also need to be able to reproduce successfully to ensure the survival of their population.

The scientific name of a janitor fish is Pterygoplichthys pardalis.

No

Sticklebacks are omnivorous, meaning they eat both plant and animal matter. Their diet typically consists of small invertebrates such as insects, crustaceans, and worms, as well as algae and other plant material. They are opportunistic feeders and will consume whatever food is most readily available in their environment.

Most fish are not capable of swimming backwards due to the design of their bodies and fins, which are optimized for forward movement. However, there are some exceptions, such as the moonfish, that are able to swim in reverse by using their pectoral fins in a unique way.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr2h which is pi * radius (squared) * height.

To figure out the volume, simply measure the width and height of the cylinder and divide the width by 2 (this is your radius). Then plug in these values using 3.14 for pi. This will give you the volume.

Another more tedious way to do this is by filling up the fish tank and measuring the water as you do.

Yes, omega-3 fatty acids primarily come from fish. Fish are a good source of two important omega-3 fatty acids: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). These fatty acids are important for brain function and overall health.

Fantail fish are cold water fish and can adapt to a wide range of temperatures. While they can tolerate cooler water, a heater may be beneficial in maintaining a more stable and comfortable temperature for them, especially in fluctuating environments. It is recommended to monitor the water temperature and provide a heater if needed to ensure the health and well-being of the fantail fish.

Albino fish should be fed a small amount of food, 1-2 times a day, that they can consume within a few minutes. Overfeeding can lead to health issues and water quality problems in the aquarium. It's important to monitor their behavior and adjust the amount of food given based on their appetite.

In Canada, fish is used for various purposes such as food consumption, recreational fishing, commercial fishing industry, aquaculture production, and conservation efforts to maintain aquatic ecosystems and biodiversity. Additionally, fish is an important part of Canadian Indigenous cultures and traditional practices.

The best time to fish in the Whitby area is typically during early morning or late evening when fish are most active. Additionally, fishing during high tide can also increase your chances of catching fish in this area. It's also recommended to check local fishing reports and weather conditions before heading out.

Yes, a puffer fish is a type of fish known for its ability to inflate itself when threatened. They are part of the Tetraodontidae family and are found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world.

Fish don't have eyelids because they have evolved to protect their eyes using a transparent layer of tissue called the cornea. This tissue keeps their eyes moist and helps maintain their vision underwater. Eyelids would hinder their ability to see and navigate effectively in their aquatic environment.

Yes, flying fish are real and they have the ability to glide through the air for short distances above water by using their specially adapted fins to generate lift. This behavior is an evolutionary adaptation that helps them escape predators and cover more distance.

Yes, puffer fish can sometimes be found in aquariums at zoos, but they are not typically found in traditional zoo exhibits with land animals. Aquariums provide a suitable environment for puffer fish as they require specific water conditions to thrive.

There are many aspects of a starfish that can be considered important to humans. Some quite obvious, other rather hidden.

Some starfish are edible, at least parts of them. Humans can benefit from starfish as food.

Other properties are that some of them are quite fascinating to look at. Many with pretty colors.

A starfish may not be directly important, but as a whole, they take part in an ecosystem and adds to the diversity of life on our planet. Diversity is very important as some other fish or animals may be dependent on them in order to survive. If the starfish became extinct, then this would be a catastrophe to other lifeforms. Some may benefit that for a while, but in the end there would be species lost that we might miss more than the actual starfish themselves.

Starfish has got the ability to regenerate lost arms. Some starfish can even become two individual starfish if cut in half. This regenerative power is something humans could benefit from if we managed to decode the methods involved. Many humans could benefit from this if we only could adapt this to human biology.

Fish jump out of the water for a few reasons: to catch insects for food, to escape from predators, and to remove parasites from their bodies. It's a natural behavior that helps them survive in their environment.

Predators of Emperor angelfish include sharks, large fish like groupers, and marine mammals like dolphins. Additionally, humans also hunt this species for food and the aquarium trade.

Fish don't "have babies" in the sense that mammals do.

The eggs are fertilized externally and the young develop on their own.

In an aquarium, the first you'll know about it is a bunch of tiny fish swimming around.

They dont always die and its probaly because of stress of two many fish, not enough hiding spots, or other fish or diseases. By the way sorry about your dead molly. Hope this saves some fish' lifes.

Clownfish do not migrate long distances like some other species of fish. They usually stay within their home reef or anemone where they have established territories. However, some individuals may move short distances to find food or to seek out a new anemone for shelter.
