so i know changes in weather change water pressure and other stuff.. and lots of animals can sence a change in the weather.. can it effect fish in any way?
 
fish in tanks must sense a change in barametric/atmospheric pressure.
Pond fish must sense even more as there outside in the thick og it :)

Wouldnt know for sure how it effects them but at a guess a they may sense when its ready to breed, migrate etc as all animals seem to
 
Fish in the wild eat more before a cold front comes through, and less after it has passed...At least I guess they do, because I always catch more fish before one and nothing after. I guess that maybe it's because they can bring weather which could flood the river or lake or whatever, but it's also true in the ocean. Winds blowing from different directions also change how fish will bite. I guess none of that really matters in an aquarium though.
