Researchers studied how environmental changes early in life affect cognitive abilities in fish. They exposed Simochromis pleurospilus fish to different feeding situations in early and late adolescence - high or low food, or a switch between the two.

This suggests environmental variation early in life can enhance cognitive performance for life in fish. The study supports Darwin
