Social interaction and distribution of female Zebrafish (Danio rerio) in a large aquarium

The mating behavior of the zebrafish seems to be influenced by the exposure of mating partners to one another several to 24 h before spawning begins at sunrise; female gonadal hormones apparently stimulate males to perform courtship behavior (1,2). Our...

The effects of biotelemetry transmitter presence and attachment procedures on fish physiology and behavior

Biotelemetry—the process of conveying data from a transmitter-attached animal to a data collection site—has received increasing awareness from fisheries researchers. Prior to biotelemetry data collection, it is imperative that researchers are aware of and understand the possible effects that transmitter...
