Can Betta Fish Touch and Feel Things?
 |
Many Scientists disagree on whether a Fish can actually feel pain. While it’s noted that Fish have the Neurological and Psychological ability to feel, Scientist don’t believe they have the higher brain functions to process this sensation of feeling as being pain.
However, they all agree that Fish have Sensory Receptors that simulate the sense of Touch/Feel. Therefore, they can use these Sensors to Touch, but what they actually “feel” is still up for debate.
