색망지에 대한 어류의 반응을 조사하기 위하여 7가지 색망지를 2가지씩 조합하여, 이에 대한 말쥐치 Navodon modestus의 반응을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 말쥐치의 개체분포는 대체로 중간구간에 많이 모였으며, 적색과 청색의 조합인 경우에만 양쪽 구간에 많이 모였다. 2. 두 망지쪽 구간에서의 평균 개체 분포차는 5.77%(0.27~12.13%)였다. 3. 말쥐치가 싫어하는 망지의 색채는 백색, 적색, 녹색, 흑색, 청색, 황색, 회색의 순으로 나타났다. 4. 시간의 경과에 따른 두 망지쪽 구간에서의 분포율의 변화는 불안정하게 변동하였으며, 대체로 감소하는 추세를 보였다. 5. 한 색망지 쪽의 분포율이 계속 크거나 적은 상태를 유지하는 경우는 대체로 일어나지 않았다.

The authors carried out an experiment to find out the response of filefish, Navodon modestus (Gunther), to the colored nets. The experimental tank of dimensions 360L×50W×55H cm was set up in a dark room. Six longitudinal sections, each being 60cm intervals, are marked in the tank to observe locations of the fishes. The depth of water in the tank was 50 cm. Two light bulbs of 30 W, placed at the both ends of the tank, projected the light horizontally into the tank. Two different colored nets selected from seven colors(white, black, gray, red, green, blue, and yellow) were placed 60 cm distance from each side of the tank. The fishes were acclimatized in the dark for 60 minutes before they were employed in the experiment. After the light was turned on, the number of fish in each section of the tank was counted for an hour in every 2 minutes into interval, the mean value of fishes in each section was used as the distribution rate of the fish. The order of colors disliked by fishes was found to be white, red, green, black, blue, yellow and gray. The distribution rate of fish in front of colored net shows a decreasing tendency as the lapse of illumination time increases.
