Music loud vs quiet Beta aggression chart

In this experiment my hypothesis was that full volume music will make the beta fish flare his gills. I was correct in the 15 seconds the fish flared his gills when music was played full volume. The fish during 1/4 volume did not show as much aggression as the first time but still was hasty. The observations show that Betas will survive better if not near loud things. Some ways this experiment could be improved is if the testing area was not loud itself with people talking all around it.
