Anyone for a little fish psychology?
So, I wonder: How do fish know their own kind? And even more so, their own colors? I have a tropical community 55 gallon designer aquarium and am more fascinated everyday. It is a new tank, and I started adding fish little by little over 8 weeks. My final result is: 2 sunburst Mollies, 2 red Mollies, 2 dalmation Mollies (one white with black spots, one black with white spots), 5 zebra Danios, 2 Ghostfish, 2 Gouramis (one powder blue and one sunset color), 2 neon tux Male Guppies, and 1 Plecco algea eater.
So here is what I came to notice. Every fish sticks with their own color! As you see, I have 6 Mollies, two of each color and they only stick with the coloring that they are. I find this fascinating.
Does anyone know why and how they do this?
I totally believe that even though I am not an authority on things like that. I have a 10 gallon tank with two Coi Fish and one little red fish (I don't know the species). We had a silver fish but it was like the two Coi fish "off'd" him because he just died one day. The two Coi fish play together and mate and the little red fish hasn't grown much, and he sticks to himself. I feel like my two "huge" coi fish are the fish mafia! That's a very interesting discovery, I'm sure someone, somewhere has done studies!
