I was under the impression that goldfish only have a memory of six seconds...

hmmmmm....apparantly not

not quite a dupe, but similar to this: http://www.videosift.com/story.php?id=1335

Goldfish have pretty good memories. Its just a myth about the 3 second thing. If it couldn't learn then it would never be able to adapt to a change in its situation and would quickly be eaten by one predator or another.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Yeah, I remember the other version, I think we concluded that they were force-fed magnets.

Watch MythBusters on goldfish memory: http://www.tv.com/mythbusters/sinking-titanic-goldfish-memory-trombone-explosion/episode/315607/summary.html

It's a total DUPE, I searched, you could have put goldfish anywhere in the other video.

The magnet thing makes sense.
