Electric fish

As we crest the hill we look down on our city covered in thick fog. The sun breaks the horizon filling the world with warm morning light. As we reach the lake the sound of frogs and waterfowl echo through the morning air. We fish for a solid 4 hours catching a total of 20 fish. As we move spots the sound of a truck stops us in our tracks we turn around to see a green and yellow lights engulfed in dust speeding towards us. My friend runs I put down my rod and wait for the punishment. For some…

to nothing. To allow for each animal—seahorse or other animal that eats shrimp or plankton—to collect enough food, the population of each must be distributed throughout different areas and populations of the ocean. Crustaceans, sting rays and some fish are predators to seahorses. The number of these species in an area of seahorses affects how many seahorses will survive in their habitat. However, predator-prey relationships between these different species have a cause and effect relationship as…

balls, “splat!,” the muck hit me in the face. Fish swimming between our toes. Finding hidden treasures. Jumping over rocks, stepping in the sand and especially having fun running our bare feet through the mucky water. And especially swinging moss around like a lasso so we could hit each other in the face. Action paragraph 1: “Yuck!,” why did you throw mud in my hair? My sister and I were having a mud fight, playing in the creek with the frogs, fish, and snakes. We were also searching for…

Why do you suppose two Betta fish always fight when placed into a bowl of water? It could be inferred to be a territorial instinct, or probably a way to fight for mates, but whichever way you look at it, they always seem to fight when placed together. Beta fish, much like people, can sometimes fight for similar reasons, but sometimes it can be for more personal reasons like religion or values.

sharks go for the weaker and sick prey so they won't have to work hard. By doing that they leave the healthy and efficient fish to reproduce and pass their healthy and efficient genes. Sharks not only maintain other species but also serves as indicators of how healthy a part of the ocean is. If there are no sharks in an ecosystem then there would be no regulators to kill bad fish and overpopulation among other species would occur. Normally the Great White tends to spend its time alone and…
