Popis: An analysis of orientation of seventy-four fish over 31 months, under controlled conditions of temperature, light, water quality, and flow, reveals systematic trends in the orientation of the goldfish population. Moreover, most fish exhibit one or more type of strong short term (hourly) oscillation. It may be concluded that the observed orientation is the resultant of a complex summation of many oscillatory forces.
