    Heyyy, I noticed you have provided alt text with your post, however it doesn’t sufficiently describe the image.

    In the sidebar under 0.5 you’ll find a link to our wiki, which contains tips and guidelines on how to write good alt text :)

        It’s true. That’s why forests never have more than 100 trees, flocks never have more than 100 birds, and hives never have more than 100 insects.

          Well, ±10%. I saw a school og fish with 103 fish in it once, but ij my fishtank i coukd never get above 90 before my tetras would just all immediatepy rip each other to pieces in a terrible blood frenzy that turned the water pink.

          It’s okay, i figured out a solution; if i just occasionally plucked one out and tortured it in front of the others or smashed it against the rocks with a hammer, i could get as many as three thousand to school together!

          Eventually cracked the tank doing that though. Oopsie. Costs of docial cohesion i guess.

    I’ve always thought that they shared resources to maintain their environment. If they’re growing well it might make sense to try to keep their surroundings the same; if a neighbor dies, something else may move in that isn’t as friendly.
