  Hello 🙂
  I am not 100% sure as I don’t work on brain, but I think that the memory span of mouse is 3-6 weeks. It is always very hard to test learning or memory in mice though.
  
  And actually looks like there are studies to prove that the memory of a fish can be up to 3 months! Who knew!!!

In my planner it says a gold fishes memory span is 3 seconds. Is this true? If so why?

That’s what I knew too, then I googledit and found some scientists saying it is actually few months. More researching is needed. I will look it up for you. We will find an answer!

Maybe goldfishes have shorter memory spans than most other fish.
