Some fish experience a nap. All individuals of the parrotfish family sleep at night. They make a bed out of their own saliva that covers them fully. Then they go to sleep on the sea floor. But most other kinds of fish continue to swim slowly even when they are resting, so it’s tough to inform if they have gone to sleep.
