Taking a live fish out of water is like putting a live human in water. If they stay there too long, they choke to death
A fishes gills are designed to take oxygen out of water they will not work unless the oxygen is dissolved in water so yes a fish out of water will choke or asphyxiate if you like.
Fish require oxygen to survive, so they cannot live for an extended period of time in a non-oxygen aquarium. Without oxygen, fish will quickly become stressed, suffocate, and eventually die. It is essential to ensure proper oxygen levels in an aquarium to support the health and well-being of the fish.
If you mean drown then no, fish have gills that extract oxygen from the water as it passes Through their gills but they suffocate when the flow of water stops passing through the gills or there is a lack of oxygen in the water or when brought out of the water
Fish need gills to extract oxygen from water in order to breathe. Gills are specialized structures that contain blood vessels where gas exchange takes place, allowing fish to obtain the oxygen they need to survive. Without gills, fish would not be able to extract oxygen from water efficiently.
Any living thing can suffocate. If the ability to breath or the lack or air occurs then it is very possible to suffocate and die.
It's funny because I'm squeezing an ant right now to see if it'd suffocate....okay this sounds hurredously cruel but it wouldn't suffocate so I just let it go....and so to answer your question, NO.
If you were to remove the water the fish is in, then the fish would suffocate.
Take from the water with a net.
A shark.
No, but they could suffocate fish with their slime.
A fish AERATOR is a device used to add oxygen into a fish tank so that the fish do not suffocate as they consume the increasingly depleted oxygen supply
No, they can not breath unless they are in water. You would suffocate them if you put them in blood.
Air pollutants which can aggravate bronchial asthma in humans and cause fish to suffocate are ones which are acids formed by nitrogen compounds. Some products which produce these acids during manufacturing are fertilizer, dyes, and drugs.
Humans drown in water because our respiratory system is not adapted for underwater breathing and we cannot extract oxygen from water like fish can. Fish suffocate on land because their gills cannot extract oxygen from the air, which is less dense and has a different composition than water. Additionally, fish need to stay moist to allow their gills to function properly, which is why they suffocate when exposed to air for extended periods.
the marine fish would pretty much suffocate and die. so putting marine fish in fresh water is not a good idea.
The suffix to suffocate is (suffocating)
They do sleep on their sides because if they slept face down or face up they would suffocate
if it is a cosmetic pond put your fish in an aquarium and drain your pump so it doesn't freeze and break drain your pond
