Fish don’t need a bed or eyes to sleep. They just slow down and rest in one place, like when you take a nap on the couch. Some fish even stay awake while others are sleeping! It’s like having a buddy who naps while you play video games.
Examples
- A goldfish floats near the bottom of its bowl like it’s taking a nap on a comfy chair.
- A school of fish slows down and swims in slow circles, just like people walking around a room before falling asleep.
- A small fish hides under a rock and doesn’t move for hours, just like you when you're too tired to leave your bed.
