  2. Aquatic feeding mechanisms - Wikipedia

    Grouper capture their prey by sucking them into their mouths. Aquatic feeding mechanisms face a special difficulty as compared to feeding on land, because the density of water is about the same as that of the prey, so the prey tends to be pushed away when the mouth is closed.

  3. Aquarium fish feeder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquarium_fish_feeder

    Because fish feeders generally cannot feed frozen or live food, they are not effective options for feeding most predatory fish. [9] [10] Similarly, most (though not all), designs of feeder only allow for one type of food at a time, (flaked or granular), therefor fish communities requiring both floating and sinking foodstuffs are not well served ...

    Unlike the other large filter feeders, it relies only on the water that is pushed through the gills by swimming; the megamouth shark and whale shark can suck or pump water through their gills. [6] Manta rays can time their arrival at the spawning of large shoals of fish and feed on the free-floating eggs and sperm. This stratagem is also ...

  5. Underwater acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater_acoustics

    Output of a computer model of underwater acoustic propagation in a simplified ocean environment. A seafloor map produced by multibeam sonar. Underwater acoustics (also known as hydroacoustics) is the study of the propagation of sound in water and the interaction of the mechanical waves that constitute sound with the water, its contents and its boundaries.

  6. Bubble-net feeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble-net_feeding

    When they swallow they stream the water out through their baleen as they ingest the fish. [3] The fish that they ingest are also a source of hydration for them. [3] Bubble netting is an advanced and necessary feeding method developed by humpback whales to feed multiple mouths at one time. Humpback whales do not always feed in large groups. [5]

    In order to produce a sound that is loud enough to be heard over the music, special boards and shoes are often employed by the performer. Shoes with wooden heels or leather soles generally have a desirable sound. Sometimes, the artist will use taps or fibreglass added to the toes and heels to create a louder sound.
