  2. Aquarium lighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquarium_lighting

    Freshwater aquarium lighting is commonly provided by screw-in incandescent bulbs, fluorescent tubes and LED lamps. Incandescent lighting is becoming less popular because it uses much more energy and produces more heat than the other lighting types. [1] Compact fluorescent lighting with a compatible screw-in base is frequently used as a direct ...

    The abilities of the electric fish to communicate and identify sex, age, and hierarchy within the species are also made possible through electric fields. EF gradients as low as 5nV/cm can be found in some saltwater weakly electric fish. [27] Several basal bony fishes, including the paddlefish (Polyodon spathula), possess electroreceptors.

    The highly visual swordfish uses a heating system involving its muscles which raises the temperature in its eyes and brain by up to 15 °C. The warming of the retina improves the rate at which the eyes respond to changes in rapid motion made by its prey by as much as ten times. [66] [67] [68] Some fish have eyeshine. [69]

  8. Fin and flipper locomotion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fin_and_flipper_locomotion

    A species of mudskipper. (Periophthalmus gracilis) Fin and flipper locomotion occurs mostly in aquatic locomotion, and rarely in terrestrial locomotion. From the three common states of matter — gas, liquid and solid, these appendages are adapted for liquids, mostly fresh or saltwater and used in locomotion, steering and balancing of the body.

  9. Aquatic locomotion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatic_locomotion

    Aquatic locomotion. A great cormorant swimming. Aquatic locomotion or swimming is biologically propelled motion through a liquid medium.
