Baird and Cody are back into the word wrestling ring. I think Baird is putting words in my mouth or it is wishful thinking about square-rectangular cages as better for YP vs cylinder cages, or he has been drinking or inhaling gas fumes. It only makes sense that fish will tend to bunch up in cage corners especially new fish in a cage until they become accustomed to cage life (prison). New fish are also trying to recover from handling stress and bunching up into cage corners makes the stress worse, despite what some may say. Watch frightened fish in a cage. Perception is not reality. Note that CB1 does not use square aquaculture tanks. It is commonly reported that cylindrical cages are much better for pelagic fish or constantly swimming fish such as hybrid striped bass and trout. Name me a fish that swims in square or rectangular patterns.
