  • No fish do not fart because fish dont have any gas in them to let loose.
  • Actually according to the Ontario Science Centre whether or not fish fart, is an ongoing debate. Some experts say that the digestive gasses of fish are consolidated with their food waste and expelled in gelatinous tubes which fish then eat. But, fish have been known to emit bubbles due to an excess intake of air. For instance the sand tiger shark purposefully gulps air into its stomach at the surface then farts it out at the other end so it sinks to its desired depth. http://www.ontariosciencecentre.ca/scizone/question/default.asp?teaserIdEN=380
  • Yes. But it gets weirder; herring actually use farts to communicate with each other. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2003/11/1110_031110_herringfarts.html
  • Well, there are reportedly some herring that emit gas from their swimbladder to communicate, but it's not really considered farting.
  • Yeah, I seen 'em do it.
  • yes. My goldfish do. You can see tiny air bubbles from the anus and the poop also
  • my friend sam thinks that fish do fart, but then again sam is a bit funny like that!
  • hello, yes,all living things produce gas,which is expelled.some from the rear,some from other places.interesting question!
  • Yes, I personally think that fish fart because I have seen my parrot fish do it.I think this because when he goes up for air I think that they take in too much air and then they exert it out of their rear end.
  • Yes, fish fart. In fact, it is said that every second of everyday somewhere on Earth.. a fish is farting. The term applied to the act of a fish farting is "QUIEF"..and boy do they smell fishy!
  • Ya, A friend of mine had a weather loach. and whenever their was a largish change in air pressure(storm approaching) It would be very active, swimming up and down the tank day or night, and it did seem to be in some distress. Then he would produce a couple of bubbles. Then after that he'd be back to it's normal self. I kind of indigestion i guess.
  • yes they do mainly herrings its there way of communicating!!!!!!!!!
