Description
Fathead minnow is a freshwater fish that lives with a large group of familiar individuals, creating a cooperative community that communicates through chemicals released from the skin. The population of fathead minnow is often used as a marker by researchers for general health or pollution of local waters in North America; in Europe it is an invasive pest species that was introduced as bait.
