Fish calling to their young?

[Ross J]

I've just watched a news article on TV3 (NZ TV channel) claiming that studies have shown reef fish at the Barrier Reef (Australia) call their young back to the reef as they grow.<br /><br />It showed evidence to prove this and furthermore they think there's many more messages there as well. They recorded and played back sounds produced by the fishes swim bladder. It sounded a bit like trumpets playing!<br /><br />Its well documented that vibrations play a large part under the water so why not sounds. Whales and dolphins have been doing it for eons.<br /><br />I know certain props on specific boats can attract/repel fish, likewise specific thickness lines will vibrate and attract/repel fish.<br /><br />This will make for interesting follow up as they progress I think.<br /><br />Ross
