Do you mean stuff like maternal/paternal behaviours, for example?

Try a google search on ethology fish - that will give you some sources.

* Fish bibliography from Talk Origins
* Effects of fish on lakes bibliography
* Stickleback bibliography (Yazdan Keivany)

Or even setup your own aquarium and observe the fish yourself:
* This might help you make ethograms (Patsye Peebles)
* myfishtank.net forums
* Reefbuzz.com aquarium forums
* PlantedTank.net aquarium forums
* FishTank Forums
* Aquaria Central

Edit: readings in neuroethology may be helpful.
