How long is a fishes memory span?
A University of Plymouth psychologist wants to explode the myth that fish have a three-second memory span. Dr Phil Gee said Scientists have known for a long time that fish, even goldfish, have more than a three-second memory. In fact, research has shown fish have a memory span of at least three months. Research has also shown that fish can learn to distinguish between different shapes, colors and sounds. Thanks for using ChaCha!!
