Abstract
Fish communication and behavior are intricately linked to the influence of pheromones, chemical signals that play a vital role in social interactions among fish species. This review delves into the significance of pheromones in shaping fish behavior and communication patterns. Pheromones serve as powerful cues that facilitate various behaviors such as mating, territorial marking, and alarm responses. Understanding how fish perceive and respond to these chemical signals provides valuable insights into their social dynamics and ecological interactions. By exploring the intricate world of pheromones in fish communication, this research sheds light on the fascinating mechanisms that govern social behavior in aquatic environments.
