my 9 yr old son was feeding his fish. When he asked "do fish fart?" wasn't sure but since they poo i guess they fart too. just felt like sharing that.

Man, we had a huge poll here on Fishlore about whether fish fart or not, i think it is still on in the Poll section (Do Fish Fart)..........Dave (CoBettaCouple) started this arguement long ago, most of the members voted that fish do fart! very interesting topic..............

I remember that poll, I don't think I voted.

Of course a 9 year old boy would ask this!

I've never seen any butt bubbles.

I faintly remember the poll too ^^; I have to say, I have been wondering since I do see random bubbles and all but one fish darting away from the area heh.

They do! I have seen my Cories pass a wee bit of gas once or twice.
