The Traits of Fishes at the New York Aquarium
An article by Washington I. Denyse and Leonard B. Spencer describes fish individuality and aquarium life. It notes moon fishes thriving for four years, trout and gray snapper intelligence, and the aggressive “lady fish.” It recounts how feeding habits vary, how tank limits kill many species, and how parent bass guard fry until greed ruins them. It adds that storm cues, panic, and human interaction affect behavior, with attendants noting feeding routines and crowd behavior.
