"Yeah, I’m curious about that too. We used to flash the tank light on and off before feeding our fish and they’d all swim to the top to get ready. I didn’t assume it was about memory but an association between the light and food."

yeah, you're right it's classical conditioning, not unlike Pavlov's experiments with dogs. Pavlov would ring a bell at feeding time, and eventually the dogs would begin to salivate when the bell rang, expecting food.

it's still about memory though, as they remember to make the association.

neat.

Shaun Micallef was hilarious on 'Full Frontal' a 90's comedy sketch show in Australia, you should check out some clips from that if you can...

Plus he's awesome on the Aussie version of 'Thank God You're Here'... always cracks me up!

yeah i'm with Jexy. i had no idea that koala's were considered endangered.

in fact i remember them talking about possible culling of them not all that long ago.

but i live in Victoria too. perhaps they're just numerous here.
