Any colour you like: fish interacting with bioinspired robots unravel mechanisms promoting mixed phenotype aggregations.

Abstract excerpt

Collective behaviours in homogeneous shoals provide several benefits to conspecifics, although mixed-species aggregations have been reported to often occur. Mixed aggregations may confer several beneficial effects such as antipredator and foraging advantages. However, the mechanisms promoting phenotypically heterogeneous fish aggregations have been poorly explored so far. Herein, the neon tetraParacheirodon...
