This experiment, from February 2006 to January 2007, was designed to learn the habit and breeding behavior of Macropodus opercularis (Linnaeus) in an artificial environment. Paradise fish’s behaviors were categorized into nine patterns in this experiment. Among these patterns, swimming took 47.6%, feeding took 20.4%, motionless took 17.8%, and the rest behavior patterns including surfing to breath, building nest, taking care of larvae, waving the fins, and waving the fins and body without moving around. Paradise fish’s behavior patterns are closely related to environmental temperature. The percentage of active behaviors during 14℃~18℃ would take only 37.33% of the period of observation; and when the temperature moved up to 29℃~32℃, it would also increase to 90.26%. Temperature also influenced the usage of space of paradise fish. They tended to perform most of their behaviors near the surface area. When being disturbed, they would move to the bottom of the water area fast and hold still there. With the increase of temperature, paradise fish’s fighting behavior tends to be faster and more furious. It usually ended within 30 minutes and the advantage lied in the previous habited paradise fish.This experiment also discussed the influence of temperature on paradise fish’s breeding behavior. When food sources were abundant and the water temperature was above 22℃, male paradise fish would start to produce foam to build up its nest. Under the influence of low temperature, female paradise fish would not lay eggs unless the temperature was increased by heating facility to 26℃. However, if the temperature was kept steady at 26℃, the female paradise fish would not lay eggs, either. The temperature had to be lowered for at least one week before it could be raised again to induce female paradise fish to lay eggs. After the eggs were laid and fertilized, if the temperature increase in the following days were lower than 0.2℃ a day, the number of larvae hatched in the nest would be very low or even none; on the contrary, if the temperature increase could be more than 0.8℃ a day, the number of larvae could be effectively improved. The differences could be as huge as 250 to 1127. When discussing the survival rate of larvae, this experiment confirmed that small Cyclops would be the most suitable feed for larvae. If the water quality was stable and food source was sufficient, survival rate of larvae could be more than 90%.

Animal agonistic behaviors, including threat, combat, submission and chase, are complex responses to experimental stimuli. Animal behaviors are regulated by the central nervous system. In the central nervous system, the biogenic amine serotonin has been thought to serve important roles in animal aggression (including fish), but it’s not clear if serotonin affects threatening and fighting differently. This study took experimental approaches to examine the effects of this neurotransmitter on threatening and fighting in a paradise-fish model in which the complex agonistic behavior is well characterized. Treatments with serotonin synthesis precursor tryptophan (0.125mg/g) to one of the two contestants had insignificant effects on threatening or fighting while synthesis blocker p-Chlorophenylalanine (PCPA) (0.3mg/g) decreased threatening time and occurrences of head-tail display. When these drugs were added to both contestants, tryptophan reduced all agonistic behavioral patterns displays, and PCPA decreased threatening time and head-tail display. In addition to changes in behavioral patterns, tryptophan led the fish to be attacked. In contrast, PCPA led the injected fish to actively attack its opponent. However, tryptophan and PCPA had no effect on social status in parasise fish. I suggest that agonistic responses and the initial fighting decision in a paradise fish are affected not only by level of its serotonin, but also by the behavioral responses of its opponent. And the establishment of outcome of encounter is affected more by the environmental stimuli than the serotonin level.

An individual’s reproductive success can depend on its morphological, behavioral and hormonal traits. Although many studies have explored the importance of each of these three individually to reproductive success, how they combine and how males’ and females’ traits combine to influence reproductive success are rarely explored. I paired up male and female paradise fish Macropodus opercularis to investigate (1) whether male and female fishes’ behavioral traits are related to their morphological traits and hormone levels, and (2) the relative importance of the three types of traits in both the male and the female in determining the reproductive success of a mating pair. I used standard length, condition factor and caudal fin length to represent the fishes’ morphology; aggressiveness (attack frequency) and parental care (bubble-nest area) to represent their behaviors; levels of testosterone (T), 11-ketotestosterone (KT), 17ß-estradiol (E2) and cortisol (Cort) to represent their hormones, and likelihood of spawning, latency to spawn and the number of eggs they produced to represent reproductive success. I had five main sets of results. (1) Egg production was associated positively with the female’s KT levels and the male’s T levels, but negatively with female’s T levels and the male’s KT levels. (2) Males with high levels of T built small bubble-nests. Moreoever, female partners of males which built smaller bubble-nests spawned more slowly. (3) Females with higher levels of Cort were slower to spawn. (4) Female partners of males with greater condition factor were less likely to spawn, and partners of males with longer standard length produced fewer eggs. (5) Males with longer caudal fins were less aggressive, and females with longer standard length were more aggressive. Overall, this study showed that males which provided more parental care or had higher levels of T had higher reproductive success, but that larger males or those with higher levels of KT had lower reproductive success. Moreover, females with high levels of KT had high reproductive success, but those which had higher levels of T or Cort had lower reproductive success. In conclusion, the morphological traits and hormone levels of male and female paradise fish were related to their aggressiveness and parental effort. A pair’s reproduction was correlated with both the male and female fishes’ traits. Morphological traits and hormone levels were more important than aggressiveness and parental effort, and males’ traits had a stronger association with reproduction than females’.
