A LITTLE ABOUT FISH
For many people, fish are friends, not food. Believe it or not, fish have pain receptors, and just like us, they experience stress, happiness, and pain. According to recent studies, fish have their own unique personalities. Some are adventure seekers, while others are shyer and are hesitant to take risks. If you don’t love fish yet, then it’s time to learn more about them!
Have you seen the movie, Finding Nemo? Clownfish like Marlin and Nemo are brilliant animals that live in many ways similar to us. Fish remember and recognize other fish (except for Dory!), and establish relationships with creatures within their network. In real life, they also know how to build nests, hide eggs from predators and use rocks to crack shells open.
Wild fish live in almost all aquatic habitats, They are well adapted to live in rivers, ponds, streams, lakes, and oceans. There are around 28,000 known species, and more still to be discovered by experts. Just imagine the ocean beaming with fish of various shapes and sizes. They eat a vast range of ocean species, from other live fish, fish eggs, larvae, and crustaceans, to algae, jellyfish, and worms.
