The research idea emerged after scientists from the university in their earlier experiments found that laboratory fish were exhibiting behavioural quirks in high carbon dioxide environment. The fish found it harder to locate a reef or detect the warning smell of predator fish (see ‘Nemo finds its predator’, Down To Earth, August 1-15, 2010) The team then speculated that a connection between nerves and chemistry might be involved. It is known that once excited, nerve cells need a chemical to calm them.
