In My Experience, Fishkeeping is like Cooking. Five or ten basics will keep anyone from getting sick. But to be truly magnificent... You have to know the right Recipies.

Re: Sensory Organs?
They are, in effect,the equivalent of our nostrils. Not for breathing through, but for chemical detection or scent/flavor. So you are correct, they are exactly sensory organs.
