Fish have an amazing ability to change their body shape in relation to their habitat. Such a change is of great importance for, among other things, competition for food or as protection against predation. Since both competition and predation vary greatly with the density dynamics of fish populations, I propose in this study to study the extent to which fish's body shape can also vary with this dynamic. Through a combination of studies in fields, enclosures and aquariums, I intend to study how plastic fish are in their body morphology in relation to competition with other individuals, the structure of the environment and whether an induced morphology can be reversed, ie. regenerated to a previous state. The study will be an excellent tool for predicting the long-term development of fish populations
