Download or read book Fish Behavior in the Aquarium and in the Wild written by Stephan Reebs and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A home aquarium seems a peaceful place. Gazing at its inhabitants as they swim slowly through their small universe is a soothing, even hypnotic, experience. But this seeming tranquillity is only surface deep. Like their wild counterparts, these tiny, glittering beings exhibit a wide array of fascinating behaviors.Stéphan Reebs provides a delightfully entertaining, yet scientifically grounded, look at what fishes do and how they do it. From defending their young, to seeking out the perfect sexual partner, to telling time, fishes display a variety of behaviors that may not be readily apparent to the casual observer. Reebs not only describes the behaviors, but also outlines simple experiments that can be performed by observers wishing to learn for themselves just how resourceful—and bizarre—these creatures can be.How Fish Behave introduces us to damselfishes that sing like birds, elephantfishes that communicate electrically, and sticklebacks that deceive other fish into believing they have found food. Drawing on the experimental evidence behind such intrinsically interesting responses, Reebs demonstrates how science is conducted in the field of animal behavior.

Book excerpt: From the award-winning author of Legend of a Suicide: “A kind of modern fairy tale . . . Vann’s novels are striking, uncompromising portraits of American life” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). David Vann’s dazzling debut Legend of a Suicide was reviewed in over a 150 major global publications, won eleven prizes worldwide, was on forty “best books of the year” lists, and established its author as a literary master. Now, in crystalline, chiseled yet graceful prose, Aquarium takes us into the heart of a brave young girl whose longing for love and capacity for forgiveness transforms the damaged people around her . . . Twelve-year-old Caitlin lives alone with her mother—a docker at the local container port—in subsidized housing next to an airport in Seattle. Each day, while she waits to be picked up after school, Caitlin visits the local aquarium to study the fish. Gazing at the creatures within the watery depths, Caitlin accesses a shimmering universe beyond her own. When she befriends an old man at the tanks one day, who seems as enamored by the fish as she, Caitlin cracks open a dark family secret and propels her once-blissful relationship with her mother toward a precipice of terrifying consequence. “A blue-collar parable . . . [The character] looks back on her life as a child looks into a tank, hoping to make sense of the world inside—a theme Vann develops beautifully, creating a mysterious realm of the wintry American city.” —The Guardian

Here’s a teaser below to get you thinking…. i’ve gotta sell the book somehow right? Essential Equipment for a Freshwater Aquarium Setting up a freshwater aquarium is an exciting and fulfilling experience. Whether you are a parent looking to teach your children about responsibility, a hobbyist wanting to create a beautiful aquatic environment, or an adult seeking a calming and therapeutic activity, understanding the essential equipment for a freshwater aquarium is crucial for maintaining happy and healthy fish. Aquarium Tank: The first step in creating a freshwater aquarium is selecting the right tank. Consider the size of your available space and the number of fish you intend to keep. A larger tank provides a more stable environment and allows for a greater variety of fish. Filtration System: A reliable filtration system is essential for maintaining water quality. It removes harmful substances, such as ammonia and nitrites, keeping the water clean and safe for your fish. Choose a filter that suits the size of your tank and consider options like sponge filters, canister filters, or power filters. Heater: Most freshwater fish thrive in a specific temperature range. A heater ensures the water remains within the ideal temperature range, promoting the health and well-being of your fish. Select a heater with a built-in thermostat for precise temperature control. Lighting: Proper lighting is crucial for the growth of aquatic plants and the overall aesthetic appeal of your aquarium. LED lights are energy-efficient and provide a natural-looking illumination. Opt for a lighting system that mimics the day-night cycle to create a natural environment for your fish.
