No, no, no, no, no, no, no! It's not true! Goldfish are actually one of the more intelligent fish, but all fish have longer memories than we humans give them credit for. We just like to say that all animals are stupid because it makes us feel more intelligent. Many types of aquarium fish, goldfish most especially, have been trained to do very intricate tricks and routines and, if these routines are regularly repeated, they remember them for as long as you choose to keep them doing it. Myth, myth, myth. Please discard.

No. The Mythbusters busted this myth in episode 11.

Mythbusters busted that one in their first season when they actually taught goldfish to swim a maze.

Nope! It's not true. Their memory is LONGER THEN # SECONDS!!! I always argue with people on this one. They tested it on mythbusters with live fish and live people! Their memory is longer then 3 seconds!!!!
