The Fish Figurative Language
"The Fish" by Elizabeth Bishop is about a fisherman who was joyful to have caught a tremendous
fish. However throughout the poem, the fisherman examine the fish closer and realize how special it
is. Admires that it's no ordinary fish because of the injuries and scars from battles faced from
previous fishermens. Respects his power to survive and releases the fish as it deserves another
chance. The speaker uses diction and figurative language such as similes and imagery to reveal the
change in attitude toward the fish by describing the struggles it has been through and characteristics
of the fish. The change in attitude towards the fish begins on line 22, where the speaker uses diction
to describe the struggle and condition the fish is in. "While his gills were breathing in the terrible
oxygen –– the frightening gills"(22). Usually when we think of oxygen, it is valuable because it's
necessary for us to live. However, in this case to a fish it's the opposite. The use of terrible helps the
reader to image the fish trying to stay alive and why the speaker is concerned. Also uses imagery to
describe the fish's struggle "Grim,wet, and weaponline, hung five old pieces of fish line... and a wire
leader with the swivel still attached"(50). The fish broke free of five fish lines, has a ... Show more

"I admired his sullen face, the mechanism of his jaw"(45) is an example of diction, uses sullen to

entrails, and thee pink swim–bladder like a big peony."(31).Helps the reader to picture the fish's
injuries and makes us feel bad for the fish. The usage of diction and figurative language shows the
fisherman's sympathy towards the fish and understands his

The Fish By Elizabeth Bishop
When an individual looks at an animal, does he see an object or a living breathing individual? In
"The Fish," Elizabeth Bishop turns an everyday object such as a fish into a battle scarred war hero in
the eyes of the reader. Societies various perspectives on the consumptions of living animas has
influenced the preconception the speaker has on living animals. With her previous knowledge of
fishes and her use of personification, she creates a new ideology on how to view living animals. This
becomes the main transformation the speaker has on her fishing journey. Ultimately in "The Fish,"
the theme of morality is contemplated as the speaker changes her perspective on the symbolic fish,
and in doing so it changes the reader's preconceptions on ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net

From reading the poem, the reader is aware of how descriptive Bishop is with her observations.
Furthermore, the way the speaker depicts each description is very important observation. Carlson
writes, "Bishop anthropomorphizes the fish, calling it 'he' throughout" (82). This introduces the fish
as a male figure and begins to characterize it away from being more than just an object. This
introduces the idea of personification by how Bishop begins to characterize the fish. In addition,
Bishop writes, "I admired his sullen face, / the mechanism of his jaw" (45–46). Here we see Bishop
starts to admire the human like characteristics the fish has. Carlson says, "It is the human
subjectivity to which Bishop responds...describing the fish's ability to attract her sympathy in
anthropomorphic–and gendered–terms" (82). In other words by characterizing the fish as male and
describing him in a human–like form, Bishop creates a sympathetic attraction to the fish in the
reader and the speaker. We see a sense of connection in Bishop's quote when he says," I looked into
his eyes / which were larger than mine / but shallower, and yellowed, / the iris backed and packed /
with tarnished tinfoil seen through the lenses / of old scratched isinglass" (34–40). This connection
we see where the fish is being

The Fish Story Symbolism
The fish in "Fish Story" symbolizes a transitional period for the boy, who acts as the narrator. Many
times it is said that your eyes are the windows to your soul, in "Fish Story" the fish's eyes acted as a
symbolic window into the narrator's soul. Being a boy of 10 years old he is suspended between the
world of childhood innocence and raw uncensored adulthood. From early on the boy connects with
the fish as he is describing the fish's eyes, "The fish, in turn, studied me with its round, obsidian
eyes, which had a gold lining to their perimeter, like pyrite" (p. 1, par. 5, Bass, 2009). This shows
the amount of consideration that the boy puts into the fish. He sees it as more than that of a meal or

2, par. 16, Bass, 2009). In fact, the actions of the partygoers that night the narrator largely attributes
to the alcohol consumed, if not directly, he makes mention of the fact it is present several times
throughout the story.
As he is forced into the harsh reality of adulthood he notices the fish changing too, once again in the
fish's eyes, "I kept watering the fish. The gasps were coming slower and I felt that perhaps a fire was
going out in the fish's eyes" (p. 3, par. 22, Bass, 2009). Just as the water is turned off by Jack's dad,
the narrator's innocence starts a downward spiral. He no longer has that lifeline to the fish. He starts
seeing changes in the fish's appearance "Immediately, or so it seemed to me, a fine wrinkling
appeared on the previously taut gunmetal skin of the fish–a desiccation, like watching a time–lapse
motion picture of a man's or woman's skin wrinkling as he or she ages, regardless of the man's or
woman's wishes to the contrary" (p. 3, par. 24, Bass, 2009). With this reference he is implying the
desire to stay young and to not age, to not be aware of the eventual end. As Jack's father is prepping
the fish for the fire the boy is shocked, and disgusted

Little Fish Symbols
During the eighties, I used to see little fish emblems on bumper stickers every time I went driving. I
understood that the symbol related to Christianity in some way but I didn't know its exact meaning.
Because I was not a Christian, seeing this symbol everywhere I looked made me feel like an outsider
in my community. Another phenomenon I noticed was that there were many other bumper stickers
making fun of the fish symbol. Whatever I felt about the symbol at the time, I felt that mocking it
was not appropriate. For example, some people put little fish with legs on bumper stickers and the
word "Darwin" inside. Still, others countered that image by showing a big fish with the word
"Truth" on it eating a Darwin fish. Others had various different ... Show more content on

It now represents a war between Christians and those who oppose Christianity. No one has the right

Christians were able to change the meaning of the symbol, and I must do the same. I believe I can
do this if I disassociate it with the "fish wars" and bring it back as a symbol that is sacred in multiple

With many thousands of species of saltwater fish to target, two stand out, the tarpon and the spiny
lobster. People come from all over the world to catch both of these coveted species. The tarpon gives
anglers one of the toughest fights of their lives, sometimes lasting hours. Boca Grande Pass in Punta
Gorda is famous for tarpon fishing and is often the venue for many tournaments. Along with tarpon,
Florida's spiny lobsters are a major attraction for anglers but in a different way. They are not caught
with a fishing rod but rather are apprehended while snorkeling or by using a bully net. The intensity
and stamina required by a swimmer to capture a legal–sized "keeper", creates a thrill like no other.
Bully netting lobster occurs at night as the angler attempts to capture the migrating lobsters in a
special net while standing in the boat. With multiple ways to catch these beasts, the challenge keeps
the thrill alive for anglers of all

Poem Analysis: The Fish
The Fish is a narrative monologue composed for 76 free–verse lines. The poem is constructed as one
long stanza. The author is the speaker narrating this poem. She narrates a fishing experience. The
author is out in a rented boat on a body of water, presumably a lake. She tries to describe the fish to
the fullest, which appears to be the purpose of the poem, without saying either the specie or an
approximate age. The narration gives the impression that the fish is slightly old. There are a number
of reasons as to why that fish got caught by the author, including time of day, the weeds weighing it
down, fish's age, and the fact that it has been previously caught five times. This poem is full of
visual imagery; one can imagine being the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

pieces of fishing line caught in his jaw shows how many times he either escaped or was let go by the
other fishers. Then the description of the rented boat, the parts of the boat that all turned into a
rainbow. There are four examples of assonance in this poem, lines 6–7, 10, 14–15, and 21. In lines
6–7, fought/all and hung/grunting are assonants. In line 10, skin/strips are assonants and also the
speaker uses hung again which she used earlier in line 7 to reiterate that the fish is dying.
Blown/roses and stained/age are assonants in lines 14–15. Line 21 is the last line in this poem to
employ assonance, green/weed and also the third line to use "hung". The fish hanging on both
describes its age as well as its weight. There is also repetition of "rainbow" four times, lines 69 and
75, which shows that she had a "vision" or a transformation that caused her to release the fish. The
author's diction is easy to understand, not complicated fisherman dialect. In lines 8 and 9, she uses
words that offer a precise description of the fish, "battered and venerable and homely". But she also
employs words that show that she has knowledge of fishing, such as, shiny entrails (line 31), and
isinglass (line 41). There is a little irony in the poem. In lines 5 and 6, the author says, "He didn't
fight. He hadn't fought at

I opened the black hatch on the lid of the fish tank. Turning open the lid of the plastic container, I
reached inside and took out a pinch of the musty–smelling fish food flakes. I sprinkled the flakes
over the water in the fish tank and watched as the 5 fish swam up, gulping up the thin copper,
crimson, and mahogany colored flakes. I watched until the fish swam away, finished with their
meal. I then closed the hatch, put away and closed the jar of fish food, and walked out of my room.
Feeding time was over. Just a couple days ago, I had been at Petsmart with my family.
The fish tanks at Petsmart were all lined up against the walls, illuminated by blue and violet lights.
Each fish tank held fish of all kinds of different shapes, colors, and sizes. My family had bought 5
glimmering fish, a bag of fish care supplies, and when we got home, my mom and dad took the old
fish tank we had in our garage, and much to my delight, set it up in my room, on top of a low
bookcase.
One day, me and my mom both saw something odd in the fish tank.. One of the fish, a huge fish
with silver colored scales, was pecking at some of the smaller fish, causing a couple of their scales
to fall off and drift around in the water. Me and my sister started calling that fish the,"mean fish."

Abyssal Fish Essay
Abyssal fish
Abyssal fish are those fish that live below the photic zone of the ocean, below 2000 m. These fishes
must survive in extremely harsh conditions, such as hundreds of bars of pressure, small amounts of
oxygen, very little food (no photosynthesis), total darkness, and extreme cold. Examples of Species:
Lanternfish, flashlight fish, anglerfish, tripod fish, giant squid, and others.
In order to survive and reproduce, the abyssal animals developed necessary adaptation (anatomical
and behavioral) to suit the deep water environment. These include:
Coping with total darkness: Many species are blind and rely on other senses to replace peripheral
vision (e.g. smell) for finding a mate and/or avoiding predators.

most experienced anglers. Musky fishing has evolved such as by the equipment, the anglers
themselves, and the fish. This specific fish is a very interesting animal. The muskellunge (muskie) is
the largest member of the pike family. These fish love to lurk around rock bars, stumps, ledges, and
many different types of weeds. "A lean mean fightin' machine that is arguably the most sought–after
trophy in Wisconsin." (Terrance Dehring WI DNR). Muskies will attack almost anything that can fit
in there mouths such as muskrats, ducks, mice, and others. These fish are very aggressive they are a
superlative predator that lurks in the freshwaters of the northern states. Muskies can be located in
many states such as Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New
york and some provinces in Canada. The muskie is a very pressured fish in the northern states and
spots you have fished in the past have been overfished. The fish is a very smart animal that isn't
afraid to attack and conquer. Many people consider fishing is something for fun but now it has
grown to much more. The muskie at one point was very low in population because the sportsman ...

Analyzing The Poem 'The Fish'
"The Fish"
Thinking about the text:
1) Yes, the authors attitude changed throughout the poem. In the beginning the author wrote that the
fish didn't have any fight " He hadn't fought at all. He hung a grunting weight, battered and
vulnerable" and towards the end she noticed that the fish was in fact a survivor "Like medals with
their ribbons frayed and wavering, a five– haired beard of wisdom trailing from his aching jaw."
2) At one point in the text the author did compare her eyes to the fish's " I looked into his eyes which
were far larger than mine but shallower ,and yellowed." She was comparing herself to the way the
fish looked. I feel as though she saw a fight in the fish that she also carries inside of her own self.
3) I personally think the victory was on the fishes side. She kept giving the fish the descriptions of
an amazing warrior who as escaped a plentiful of past fishermen. I think in the back of her mind she
knew that she was obligated to put it back into the water to claim another victory. It was a victory
for the fish because it has escaped death once again. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

reveled. The lip has grown around the hooks and the hang "like medals with their ribbons frayed and

five times before and still had managed to be alive. This story is full of symbolism such as the fish

Identify Fish
There are many different ways to identify a fish, yet each fish is unique in its own way. A carp has
one barbel at each corner of the mouth that is short, while a mirror carp has large scales that flake
off. A Northern pike has a duck billed snout and yellow bean shaped spots, where a buffalo fish has
a downturned mouth with thick lips and a paddlefish has a paddle like snout and are plankton
feeders. A bullhead has a rounded tail; however, a catfish has a forked tail. A largemouth bass and a
rock bass are in the sunfish family, yet can be identified by looking at the upper jaw that extends
past the eye of the largemouth bass and the bloodshot eyes of the rock bass. The sunfish family,
which is also composed of the bluegill, green sunfish, and redear sunfish, can be identified by
looking at the opercular flap; a bluegill has a solid black flap, a green sunfish has a black flap with a
white or yellow edge, and a redear sunfish has a black flap with a red edge. A walleye is identified
by looking at the tail fin; it has a white margin on lower lobe of the tail fin.

they can get the "real taste" of Hawai'i. But do they know where the fish came from? When it was
caught? How long it's been sitting in the freezer? How old or young the fish was? Do they even

One of the main problems in the U.S. is Unsustainable fishing. The seas and other bodies of water,
as well as its inhabitants, are being threatened by numerous factors. Overfishing can lead to damage
in the environment, extinction of species, increase in pollution, and a total collapse of fish stock. In
2012, the U.S. Government decided to enforce the fishing policy by giving all fisheries a catch limit.
Juliet Eilperin, from Washington Post, stated, "Five years ago, Bush signed a reauthorization of the
Magnuson–Stevens Act, which dates to the mid–1970s and governs all fishing in the U.S. waters. A
bipartisan coalition of lawmakers joined environmental groups, some fishing interests and scientists
to insert language in the law requiring each fishery to have annual catch limits in place by the end of
2011 to end overfishing". This was the beginning of a great debate that many people began to be
engaged in. After this article was published many people started to realize the dangers of overfishing
and what we are doing to our own

Lion Fish
This article is about the rapid growth of lionfish in the wild. These fish are destroying the
ecosystem. They are an unopposed predator in the deep blue and so they over eat to the point of
obesity and reproduce rapidly. Colin Angle, iRobot CEO, went on a diving trip in the bermuda and
learned about the damage the lionfish were doing. Several conservationists motioned or funded him
creating a machine that could kill the fish. This is how the Robots in Service of the Environment
(RISE) nonprofit company was started. RISE has been trying to come up with ideas on how to deal
with the dead lionfish. One thought was to have sharks trained to eat them. Another thought was to
use their remains as jewelry. It hasn't been decided on what they will do. So far fishermen can kill
lionfish in local reefs or shallow water but lionfish can survive at even greater depths. Machines are
ultimately going to play a large role in controlling the lionfish population. ... Show more content on

They are fierce predators that are unopposed in the wild and are eating and reproducing too much.
The Robots in Service of the Environment (RISE) was founded because of this dilemma. Now,
people are trying to figure out exactly how they will control the lionfish population. To reflect, I
disagree with killing the lionfish. Robots, in my opinion, shouldn't be used to kill sea creatures even
if they are destroying the environment. There should be another way to deal with this situation. This
impacts me in particular because I like to build robots and if they'd be used to kill animals then I
would stop making

Fish Memo
I'm going to start off by answering the questions stated in paragraph 2 and 3 of the memo. The
anglers at Site 1 have reported that only 5 to 10% of the fish are exceeding the length of 20 inches.
I'll be examining this statement in paragraph 2 of this analysis. The histogram shows a distribution
of the length of fish in the river that is fairly symmetrical, centered at about 16.35 and has a spread
of 12.57 to 20.4 inches with no outliers. The mean of the length of fish is 16.349 inches and the
median is 16.35, both being very similar due to the symmetric distribution. In order for a fish from
the river to be in the top 25%, the length of the fish must be greater than or equal to 17.28 inches.

In order to pick which variable has a better correlation with species, we created a scatter plot in
Exhibit 5 with the variable Salrange which shows a linear form and a moderate correlation. Exhibit
6 confirms the moderate, negative correlation of –0.72 with species. Next, we will look at the
correlation between Meansal and species. Exhibit 7 shows a nonlinear scatter plot with very little
correlation. Exhibit 8 shows that there is an extremely weak correlation between the variable
Meansal and species. Exhibit 9 includes the regression model when using Salrange as the
explanatory variable:
Predicted Species = 20.01 – 1.99(Salrange)
The model suggests that for every 1 unit added to Salrange, the predicted species decreased by 1.99.
This model has an R–squared value of .5169, indicating that approximately 52% of the variation in
the amount of macroinvertebrate species is explained by the model. This suggests the model will be
useful for prediction purposes. Our residual scatter plot in Exhibit 10 shows a normal scatter which
indicates that it is a useful model as well.
Meansal was not used to create a regression model due to its extremely weak relationship with the

The Fish By Elizabeth Bishop
"The Fish" by Elizabeth Bishop is a very colorful poem filled with lots of different outcomes than
our usual expectations. The poem is very symbolic through its use color and the fish it describes.
The poem is also written in free verse, which you could relate to the nature of the fish. It is set on a
boat in the middle of the ocean, with the ocean symbolizing chaos, the nature of the poem. The fish
causes some conflict within this poem. First, the fish changes the speaker's expectation of how
events will occur. We can infer that the speaker did not find catching the fish as fulfilling as she
thought she would have. Based on the long debating and dangling of the fish, it is obvious that the
speaker feels at least moderately conflicted about

Marine Fish Overfishing
A predominant resource in our oceans are fish and other marine species. In recent times, fish have
been caught with less effort due to new technologies, improved equipment and human's need for
money. Fishermen have started capturing fish at a faster rate than they can be reproduced. This is
known as overfishing which leads to degradation of our oceans. The fishing industry is growing as
the demand for seafood is increasing. This leads to many negative issues, the main issue being the
loss of species and ecosystems which can lead to humans losing such a valuable source of food.
What makes matters worse is that other marine species are caught and destroyed for no purpose in
the process. Scientists predict the commercial extinction of marine life if this trend continues. This
raises the question "should more be done to sustainably manage ocean fishing?"
Fishing is destroying marine biodiversity. When it comes to balancing the ecosystem, every single
plant and animal have a role to play. Marine creatures are dependent on other organisms in order to
thrive. The oceanic ecosystem contains complex interlinked systems where organisms rely on their
own niche for survival. As the world's population's demand for seafood increases so does
commercial fishing. 'The global marine fish catch is approaching its upper limit' (Evatt G 2017). The
vast removal of targeted fish has shifted the food web structure. Fishing has led to a decrease in the
mean size of target fish as the larger

Characteristics Of Sargassum Fish

Comparing Natural Mortality of Sargassum Fish (Histrio histrio) and Blue Runner (Caranx crysos).
Violeta Curameng
Abstract In the Gulf of Mexico a variety of marine environments can be utilized by fish. Common
environments include Coral reefs and Sargassum. An assortment of fish can inhabit these
environments but which environment they live in depends on their life history. Histrio histrio
(Sargassum Fish) live in the Sargassum and Caranx Crysos (Blue Runner) live in the open water
near reefs. Natural mortality of these species can be linked to their distribution and their life history
strategies.
Introduction
In the Gulf of Mexico there are many different marine habitats that reside in its waters. From reef
environments to floating Sargassum, a diverse variety of fishes can be found. Sargassum, is a type of
brown algae that consists of two species, S. natans and S. fluitans (Rooker 2006). Sargassum has
been linked to primary and secondary production and can also be a hot spot of production which
would be an ideal habitat for pelagic fishes (Peres 1982). Coral reefs are a habitat that are common
in the Gulf of Mexico, such as, the Flower Garden Banks (NOAA 2017). There are also many
artificial reefs in the gulf that provide shelter for many fish species (Bull 1994). Of these habitats
fish such as, Histrio histrio (Sargassum Fish) and Caranx crysos (Blue Runner) are abundant. H.
histrio can be found hidden in the Sargassum environments while

"The Fish" by Bishop help the reader to see the motions. She uses tone to allow the reader to see the
fish and create a connection. The mental pictures created are, in fact, so good that the reader
believes incident actually happened to a real person, therefore building respect from the reader to the
fish. The reader is blasted with an intense image of the fish, speaks about the fish on an individual
base and sees how the writer compares the fish to her boat.

This rented boat leaking oil from its rusted engine created a rainbow so beautiful that she became
overwhelmed and releases the fish. The boat started out defective, but so amazed asthe writer, that
she released the fish. Here, the boat can be compared to the fish; in it's initial faultiness, then to its
final glory. The expressive words allow the reader to, again, think about the moment colorfully
through the eyes of the narrator. She does a wonderful job in describing every moment in her
growing relationship with the fish. She creates, first an image of a helpless captive and the reader is
allowed to feel sorry for the fish and even pity his situation. The storytellers relationship with the
fish then grows to one of personal regard as she looks into his eyes and describes his stare. Because
the reader is following the story with the poet, the readers relationship to the fish evolves as the
writer does. Next, a level of respect is reached, when the writer sees his five–hooked jaw; she
realizes his situation of capture and detention and releases him as he'd gotten away five times
before. The reader's value also reaches this level of respect, in that the fish had been caught five
times previously and still managed to be alive. The fish's "badges of courage," described by the poet,
allowed the reader to grow and create a bond with the fish and understand his life. The imagery and

Fish Reflection
When the external observations were completed, the first incision was commenced. In order to reach
the internal organs of the fish a rectangular cut was made which first started from the anus to the
pelvic fin, then the incision was made from the ends of the previous cuts upwards to the lateral line.
When the cut was finished, Yellow fluid started coming out of the fish, this is primarily water that
has been in the fish and started to change color. After the yellow fluid stopped flowing out, a closer
examination of the rectangular piece was studied. From the piece, there were three layers. They
were the scales, muscles, which were very flaky, and at certain points, the bones. The internal organs
were then visible. The first organs that were seen were part of the digestive system. The digestive
system a series of organs that break down and absorb nutrients from the material they've eaten .
These organs were the stomach, intestine, spleen, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and the previously
talked about part which were in the external observation, the anus. There were of course other parts
of the digestive system, but however, these parts would later be found when a second incision will
be made. The stomach, intestine, and anus were all connected. The stomach was located above the
pelvic fin and below the lateral line, it appeared to be a tannish sack. The stomach's job is to receive
food from the pharynx, it can expand to fit the needed size for food to pass through. Within

Overfishing: Fish Stocks
Overfishing
Most of the problems associated with overfishing have been caused in the last 50 years by the rapid
advances in fishing technology. There used to be hundreds of trawlers and fishing boats based at
ports like Peterhead, Grimsby and Great Yarmouth, but these have now been replaced by huge
factory ships which are able to stay out at sea for weeks at a time. These factory boats have all the
equipment necessary either to freeze or tin fish caught by their hunting ships, so that they need to
return to base only when their holds are full.
With the introduction of the new factory boats, there was a 7% growth in catches every year during
the 1950's and 60's, but since then there has been little increase in catch size, and at least ... Show

On the Dagger Bank, off the east coast of England near Great Yarmouth, overfishing caused the
annual catch of herring to fall 30–fold in just 15 years. By 1966, only 10,000 tonnes of the fish were
caught in the whole year. Further north, a ban was placed on herring fishing, and in 1977, a total ban
was placed on herring fishing, throughout the North Sea. The ban lasted for six years.
These are just a few examples of how overfishing can seriously affect not only the fish stocks, but
also the livelihoods of many people who depend on fishing as a job. There is a delicate balance to be
struck between catching large numbers of fish so as to make more money and ensuring that there are
enough fish left alive to be able to replenish stocks for future years. It is human nature to try to make
as much money as possible, but this has to be weighed against the economic hardship that whole
communities have suffered as a result of overexploiting their own fisheries, not to mention the grave
consequences of overfishing for fish populations.
The Effects of Overfishing on Other Wildlife.
The overfishing of a particular species does not just damage the population of that fish alone. It can
have serious effects further up the food chain. Herring is a vital prey species for the cod.

Betta Fish
Having a betta fish is fun and enjoyable. A betta fish brings happiness to every home. However,
some betta fish owners struggle with taking care of their fish. This is because they do not know how
to take care of it. This could make the fish unhealthy and lead to it's death, which would be
miserable to everyone. There are a few simple steps to taking care of a betta fish. These easy steps
will help you take care of your betta fish and keep it healthy and happy. The first step to having a
happy betta fish is buying all the things you need. You should buy a fish tank, betta fish food, water
conditioner for fish, and a betta fish. Buying things such as decorative small rocks and fake small
plants to put in the fish tank is optional. If you buy these make sure they fit in the fish tank and that
water and the fish will also be able to fit. The fish will need to be in a container filled with water.
The thing you will not need to buy from the store is tap water. Tap water will come from your sink.

If you don't have these things skip that step and move on to next step. The third step is to fill the fish
tank with water until the water is two inches from the top. Next, apply the conditioner to the water.
Instructions on how to apply the conditioner will be on the bottle that it is in. After you put in the
conditioner, carefully pour the fish into the fish tank. Once the fish is safely in the tank, take out the
betta fish food and feed your fish. To feed your betta fish, follow the instructions on the bottle of

Florida Fish Problems
The influence of the Gulf of Mexico and the Gulfstream in Southwest Florida Waters make the
temperature just right for literally hundreds of different kinds of fish. In 2011, "Florida's recreational
anglers caught roughly 121 million marine fish, 74 million of which were released." These statistics
support the notion that fishing may be one of the most loved hobbies. Since fishing efforts have
been drastically increasing over the years, dozens of species are threatened with extinction and
many more are experiencing serious population declines. In order to ensure that a fish's populations
will remain sustainable for future generations, anglers need regulations that will sustain the
existence of a fish population.
In 1999, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, or FWC, was funded in order to
manage and regulate Florida's fish and wildlife resources. Their mission was "To manage fish ...

water. The speaker is holding it on that hook and now it is getting harder and harder for fish to get
oxygen through its gill. The fish life is on the speaker's hand. The speaker is still holding the fish
next to the boat and the fresh blood coming out from its gill through the cut. In this poem, Bishop
introduce different colors by looking at fish. Speaker things white feathers are more beautiful than
the fish, but Bishop is not frightened of the gross stuff. Now Bishop is thinking of a fish as food, by
the process of preparing the fish to eat. When Speaker look at in its eye, it's shallow, big and yellow
in color. By starring to its eye, it fees more personal, but not look like human eyes. The eyes of the

In the poem "The fish" it uses allot of figurative language. For example in stanza one line one "I
caught a tremendous fish" The author uses figurative language by using Hyperbole. I believe so
because she says she caught a tremendous fish. When you think about it the word tremendous is
pretty huge. I believe the word "tremendous" brings an exciting tone to the poem. Also in stanza two
lines 5 and 6 "Here and there his brown skin hung in strips" "like ancient wallpaper" I believe the
author uses simile. I do so because he compares to things using the word "like" By using the words
"brown skin" and "ancient wallpaper" brings an old image to the fish and a tone of detail. Also in
stanza 5 it says "the dramatic reds and blacks" "of his shiny entrails"

The Fish's Image
With fewer than fifty published poems Elizabeth Bishop is not one of the most prominent poets of
our time. She is however well known for her use of imagery and her ability to convey the narrator's
emotions to the reader. In her vividly visual poem "The Fish", the reader is exposed to a story
wherein the use of language not only draws the reader into the story but causes the images to
transcend the written work. In the poem, Bishop makes use of numerous literary devices such as
similes, adjectives, and descriptive language. All of these devices culminate in the reader
experiencing a precise and detailed mental image of the poem's setting and happenings.

The mood is actually that of revelry in the moment, and toward the end we are given the sense that
the narrator is overwhelmed by the power of the situation. This is shown to us by the repeated use of
a single word and a well placed exclamation point in lines 74–75 "until everything / was rainbow,
rainbow, rainbow!" From this sentence we get a sense that the level of excitement is rising, and the
narrator is becoming caught up in the moment. In the last line of the poem the narrator makes a
simple yet powerful statement; "And I let the fish go." After reading the rest of the poem we can see
that the simplicity of this final statement is rather deceiving. By allowing the narrator to show the
fish mercy the author once again connects the audience to the story via our previous feelings of
sympathy for the fish.
So as you can see there are many ways that an author can use literary devices, or even simple
punctuation, to express to the reader a myriad of emotions and situations. This all leads to the
conclusion that the power and use of language is as important to the story, as the story

Bony Fish And The Fish
Class Osteichthyes, the biggest class of vertebrates with more than 29,000 species, comprises of the
bony fish . These fish have a skeleton much stiffer than the cartilaginous fish since it is fortified by
calcium salts. Bony fish have fantastic smell like cartilaginous fish, yet not at all like the different
classes of fish, bony fish additionally have intense visual perception. Bony fish additionally have
adaptations that permit them to stay buoyant. A unique organ called a swim bladder housed under
the hard skeleton is a gas filled chamber that permits the hard fish to stay coasting in the water.
Another adaption is the operculum, a fold on every side of the fish that covers the chambers lodging
the gills. A bony fish can inhale without swimming just by moving the operculum. Different signs of
these fish are matched blades, numerous teeth, dermal scales in the skin (in many species), and
various vertebrae. Most bony fish are beam finned fish, implying that they have slim, adaptable
skeletal beams. Lobe finned fish, the other sort of bony fish, have solid balances upheld by bones.
There is only one type of Lobe finned fish left, the coelacanth, still lives. In any case, it was the lobe
finned fish that made the colonization of area.
Chondrichthyes live for the most part in marine areas yet couple of species live in freshwater. Some
characterizing qualities of Chondrichthyes are internal fertilization by the utilization of pelvic
claspers, heterocercal tails, placoid
