Embodiment 1

[0041] The experimental device for fish bravery and exploration behavior includes a main tank 10, which is a strip-shaped tank-like structure, and the two sides inside the main tank are respectively a starting area 1 and a stimulus placement area 3. Between the district and the stimulant placement area is a test area 2, and a fish blocking door 9 is installed between the described starting area and the test area, and the fish blocking door 9 can intercept fish and make water pass through; the stimulant placement area It is completely separated from the test area by the first partition 5, the first partition is transparent, and the electrode device 7 is installed on the first partition, and the electrode device can release a voltage of 10V; the stimulus placement area 3 can pass through Place the school of fish or predatory fish of the same kind as the experimental fish to test the impact of the stimulus on the brave exploration of the fish; the test area is equipped with severa...

Abstract

The invention relates to an experimental device and a testing method for fish bravery and exploration behavior. The testing device includes a main water tank, which is a strip-shaped groove structure. The test area is between the stimulant placement area, and a fish gate is installed between the starting area and the test area. The fish gate can intercept fish and allow water to pass through; separated, and an electrode device is installed on the first partition; several transparent second partitions are installed in the test area, and the second partitions are distributed on the two side walls of the test area at intervals, so that the route for fish to pass through the test area is The tortuous route; the test methods include: fish bravery and exploration behavior tests; statistics of the time required for the experimental fish to pass through each partition; calculation of the experimental fish's brave exploration index. The invention can test and evaluate the brave exploration behavior of different fishes and the impact of facing different stimuli.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of fish behavior, in particular to an experimental device and a test method for fish bravery and exploration behavior. Background technique [0002] The bravery of fish and the desire to explore the external environment have a certain impact on its survival, reproduction and many other life history characteristics. Bold fish, for example, are more likely to explore novelty, discover new food sources, and deviate from their normal range of activities. For example, females and guppies are also more likely to mate with bolder males, and bolder breams engage in predator-checking behavior more frequently than timid individuals, and when confronted with predators, they also mate. Exhibited higher speed and more persistent foraging behavior. Testing the bravery and exploratory nature of fish and the impact of environmental conditions can not only help to understand their biological characteristics, but also provide some he...
