“…The observed rate of change in LOE temperature was less than that reported for gizzard shad Dorosoma petenense (0.60–0.67°C °C −1 ) by Monirian et al. (). Gizzard shad are pelagic detritivores which in thermally‐stratified waters may experience large changes in water temperature over the course of a day.…”

“…The observed rate of change in LOE temperature in response to an increase in acclimation temperature (0.44°C°C À1 ) was similar to rates reported for co-occurring fishes (Currie et al, 1998), such as channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus (0.40°C°C À1 ) and largemouth bass Micropterus salmoides (0.32°C°C À1 ). The observed rate of change in LOE temperature was less than that reported for gizzard shad Dorosoma petenense (0.60-0.67°C°C À1 ) by Monirian et al (2010).

Local adaptation may cause thermal tolerance to vary between nearby but distinct populations of a species. During the summer of 2013, alligator gar Atractosteus spatula spawned from broodstock collected from three populations within the Mississippi River drainage separated by a 5°lati-tudinal gradient were acclimated to three temperatures (25, 30, and 35°C). Ten fish from each population were acclimated at each temperature. CT Max was determined at each temperature for each population, using five fish for each population-acclimation temperature pairing. CT Max for each population-acclimation temperature pairing was compared using two-factor ANOVA. CT Max increased significantly with acclimation temperature (F 2,40 = 600.5, P < 0.001) but population had no significant effect (F 2,40 = 1.882, P = 0.166). Temperature tolerance appears to be consistent across populations of alligator gar, with no evidence of local adaptation.

“…Ten 0·9 l covered flow‐through aquaria (27 cm long × 14 cm tall × 12 cm wide; 1·5 l AHAB tank; Aquatic Habitats; Apopka, FL; http://www.aquatichabitats.com) were used as test chambers. This chamber type was chosen over a cylindrical design because it reduces the likelihood of fish disorientation (Monirian et al , 2010). The chambers were fitted with opaque screens to limit each fish's forward and lateral field of view, which thus minimized stress resulting from external disturbance.…”

In an effort to explore the thermal limitations of Colorado River cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarkii pleuriticus, the critical thermal maxima (T(cmax) ) of 1+ year Lake Nanita strain O. c. pleuriticus were evaluated when acclimated to 10, 15 and 20° C. The mean ±s.d.T(cmax) for O. c. pleuriticus acclimated to 10° C was 24·6 ± 2·0°C (n = 30), for 15° C-acclimated fish was 26·9 ± 1·5° C (n = 23) and for 20° C-acclimated fish was 29·4 ± 1·1° C (n = 28); these results showed a marked thermal acclimation effect (Q₁₀ = 1·20). Interestingly, there was a size effect within treatments, wherein the T(cmax) of larger fish was significantly lower than that of smaller fish acclimated to the same temperature. The critical thermal tolerances of age 0 year O. c. pleuriticus were also evaluated from three separate populations: Lake Nanita, Trapper Creek and Carr Creek reared under 'common-garden' conditions prior to thermal acclimation. The Trapper Creek population had significantly warmer T(cmax) than the Lake Nanita population, but that of the Carr Creek fish had T(cmax) similar to both Trapper Creek and Lake Nanita fish. A comparison of these O. c. pleuriticus T(cmax) results with those of other stream-dwelling salmonids suggested that O. c. pleuriticus are less resistant to rapid thermal fluctuations when acclimated to cold temperatures, but can tolerate similar temperatures when acclimated to warmer temperatures.

“…Manipulation effects may also influence the results of behavioral studies and should be accounted for-especially in studies in which fish are netted, removed from water, and transferred to another tank-as these manipulations can affect fish behaviors [64][65][66][67]. We attempted to minimize and control manipulation effects by allowing a 1.5 h acclimation period for C. eos to establish their thermal preference.…”

Mechanisms of the displacement of native fish by nonnative fish can include agonistic behaviors that push native fish species out of their preferred habitat, including their thermal optima. To examine these interactions, we built an experimental thermal preference chamber to evaluate: (1) the thermal preference of native, glacial relict northern redbelly dace Chrosomus eos; (2) if the thermal preference and movement changed in the presence of the invasive western mosquitofish Gambusia affinis; and (3) the direction of agonistic interactions. We hypothesized that G. affinis would express agonistic behavior toward C. eos, because G. affinis is widely recognized as an aggressive invader. Given the temperature range of the experimental chamber, i.e., 20–30 °C, C. eos selected an average of 24.3 °C as its thermal preference. After G. affinis’ introduction, the thermal preference of C. eos increased by 1.7 °C and the movement, given by distance (cm) travelled, increased by 21%. Contrary to our prediction, more agonistic interactions were observed in C. eos toward G. affinis. These results indicate that agonistic behavior of G. affinis toward native fish species may be species- and condition-specific, and may not always be the primary mechanism of native species’ displacement. Biological invasions are a global issue and altered thermal regimes are expected to continue. This study provided the novel approach using of a thermally heterogeneous thermal chamber to examine thermal preferences and aggressive interactions between a native and an invasive species. Future research should examine other life history traits that may be conveying the competitive advantage to G. affinis.
