Fish are faithful to permanent shelter for many years; Bullhead developed a fixation for their "home" stone, selecting it above others even when it moved, although for a short time the fish occasionally returned to its stone's original location. This suggests bullheads may home effectively; a finding that was supported by a field experiment in which 87% of fish were found under the stone six days after initial capture. |
