All fish sleep. I have a marine tank and find it interesting to watch the fish go to bed. Some change colors (go pale), some hide in holes, some bury themselves in the sand. Parrotfish will blow a mucus bubble to spend the night in.

Fish sleep they just do not sleep as we do. When the lights are out and it seems that your fish are just sitting still but slightly moving this is them sleeping. they need to stay moving water through there gills or they will die that is how they breathe. Saldy enough this is also how they urinate so just think about that for a momment they breathe and pee the same. Anyway the answer is yes they sleep.

fishes do sleep, because they dont have eye lids u cant see them close their eyes. they usually sleep in a very short period and do that many times a day while behind or under objects, sharks sleep when they are swimming since they cant stop swimming

They sleep, yes, but their bodies are set to automatically keep themselves level in the water and not float/sink
