An open database for absolutely anybody interested in fish social behaviour. Open to hobbyists, divers, fishers, researchers and more. If you’ve seen it, share it! Or if you want to find out more, explore the contributions posted from all over the globe! 🌍 🐠 🐟
🧵1/9 There are 35,000+ fish species, but we have formal social-behaviour classifications for a tiny fraction. Most knowledge lives in the experience of researchers, fishers, divers, aquarists, naturalists, and Indigenous communities, but almost none of it is centralised. So we built ShoalBase.org.

ShoalBase offers a global database on fish social behaviour, supporting research, conservation, and ecology through community contributions and visual data mapping.

Fisheries can drive selection, but what about small-scale ornamental fisheries? Our new study shows Amazonian fishes interact w/ traps in species- & environment-specific ways, hinting at overlooked selective potential. Led by @marpineda.bsky.social Read here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....

Science is not only done in English!!
We show that by doing searches in other languages we increased our understanding of the $ cost of invasive species (by a lot!!)
This is Specially important in areas where English is not widely spoken www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
