Can Fish get Depressed???

[randileigh]

Our beta fish has been staying in the corner between the wall and the thermometer for the past two or three days. He comes out to eat, but then he goes back into the corner. Can a fish get depressed? Perhaps b/c he ate his friends?

Maybe it's because he lives in a jar-sized aquarium and you leave the overhead lamp on 24-7, and all he does all day is bump into the side of the aquarium and eat dried specks of nutrients.
