TLDR
Ventral nipping and lateral fight appeared as the two most important in promoting association with metabolism in the cichlid fish Nile tilapia and the test of canonical correlation showed significant association between some agonistic profiles and metabolism.

Cortisol and glucose: Reliable indicators of fish stress?

TL;DR: A review of the most evident factors that may affect results when using cortisol and/or glucose as fish stress indicators and some suggestions to avoid or minimize erroneous results are presented.

Aggressiveness Overcomes Body-Size Effects in Fights Staged between Invasive and Native Fish Species with Overlapping Niches

TL;DR: The niche overlap between the Nile Tilapia and the pearl cichlid in nature, and the competitive advantage shown by the Nile tilapia in this study potentially represent one of several possible results of the negative interactions imposed by an invasive species.

Transportation of silver catfish, Rhamdia quelen, in water with eugenol and the essential oil of Lippia alba

TL;DR: Based on the water (total ammonia nitrogen) and ionoregulatory indicators determined in the present study, the findings indicate that eugenol and the EO of L. alba are recommended for use in the transport of this species because these anesthetics apparently reduce stress.

Chemical communication, aggression, and conspecific recognition in the fish Nile tilapia.

TL;DR: It is concluded that chemical communication decreases aggression in this species by inducing an alarm reaction and increasing conspecific recognition (thus stabilizing the dominance hierarchy).

Caution for using ventilatory frequency as an indicator of stress in fish.

TL;DR: Although VF is a non-invasive technique that does not require sophisticated recording equipment, its usefulness is limited as an indicator of stress in the Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus.
