Shoaling and schooling. These powder blue tangs are shoaling. They are swimming somewhat independently, but in such a way that they stay connected, forming a social group. These bluestripe snapper are schooling. They are all swimming in the same direction in a coordinated way. In biology, any group of fish that stay together for social reasons ...
A robot fish is a type of bionic robot that has the shape and locomotion of a living fish. Most robot fish are designed to emulate living fish which use body-caudal fin (BCF) propulsion, and can be divided into three categories: single joint (SJ), multi-joint (MJ) and smart material -based "soft-body" design.

The remora ( / ˈrɛmərə / ), sometimes called suckerfish or sharksucker, is any of a family ( Echeneidae) of ray-finned fish in the order Carangiformes. [4] Depending on species, they grow to 30–110 cm (12–43 in) long. Their distinctive first dorsal fins take the form of a modified oval, sucker-like organ with slat-like structures that open and close to create suction and take a firm ...
The evolution of fish began about 530 million years ago during the Cambrian explosion. It was during this time that the early chordates developed the skull and the vertebral column, leading to the first craniates and vertebrates. The first fish lineages belong to the Agnatha, or jawless fish. Early examples include Haikouichthys. During the late Cambrian, eel-like jawless fish called the ...

Typically, the eels are chopped (shucked) into rounds and boiled in water and vinegar to make a fish stock with nutmeg and lemon juice, before being allowed to cool. The eel is a naturally gelatinous fish, with the cooking process releasing proteins, like collagen, into the liquid, which solidify upon cooling to ...
