Zebrafish

The Zebrafish - The Zebrafish is a tropical freshwater fish native to the himayalan area. They are often used in experiments as they have several unique properties, for example they are regenerative and their embryos are transparent. All zebra fish have 5 uniform, pigmented, horizontal, blue strips along the side of the body all the way to the caudal fin, perhaps using this information we can more easily identify the fish on a computer. We must do more research on the spots of a zebrafish and how and why they change.
