yawning fish???

[dangitseric]

what does it mean when your fish yawns in a way, it opens its mouth real big as if to get a big deep breath??????? Is this normal for a fish or does it mean something is wrong with your tank?????

I do not know what it means but it is absolutely normal.

it doesent mean their sleepy or taking a deep breath

i believe that they are just stretching their jaw when they "yawn"

its kinda like then you wake up and you stretch in the morning right when you get out of bed. to release the tension from being folded up in your blanket.

Actually, yawning fish means they are bored with your tank. You will need to buy more fish, and more deco to amuse the fish.
