The down block is useful to take advantage of the 3D features of StarLogo. By adding the down block this becomes a more realistic model predator-prey interactions and fish movement. To enable random vertical movement and keep all fish above ground, fish who fall below the valid range of z values are automatically raised above ground in the final [[Special:MyLanguage/If|if]] statement.
