This just came into my head...what if fish like...understand what you say, and they somehow talk to each other about you?? :eek:
Probably not, but when I look into their eyes...it scares me sometimes. That's really freaky.
 
My fish talk to eachother all the time, but you have to bee really close to hear them. Mostly just gossip about their tankmates and what paris hilton has been doing lately and stuff like that. Sometimes after a big water change they get really philosophical, and start talking about the meaning of life and parallel universes and stuff thats really deep. They call me "that stupid guy" or "slave boy" because I'm always messing with their tanks, trying to keep them clean and whatnot. But I guess my fish are smarter than most other peoples.

:screwy:

I have long been under the belief that all animals talk about us behind our backs.

i have often thought about that because they obviously communicate with each other, so why not have proper coversations.

be kinda weird if they did though.
 
I can tell by the way my fish looks at me hes saying..When i get big enough in gonna eat you,or let that finger go a little more in the water ill get part of it.
 
Hahaha I always think this lol. Brings back a child memory of mine. For science class we had to DESIGN ( not make) an invention that would benefit us and animals. So I decided to design a communtication device that would convert fish talk to english and vise versa. The picture was a fish goin,"hey bob, lobster goes hey hows it goin ed". The guy says hey guys and the fish get shocked lol. Not eletricuted but shocked that a human is talking to them.
 
I've seen fish respond to names. So they have to know that when the name is said, it means them, and they react. It was a goldfish named "Popcorn Elephant," and everytime you said "popcorn elephant" it would swim right up to the glass and bump it's little Ryukin head on it.
