Answer 5

yeah, but you'll never know when they are..

Answer 6

No they do not, they don't even have eyelids to close.  What they do is their own version, which is to simply slow down or stop swimming at night and enter a resting state.  (Be kind to them and turn the aquarium lights off at night. They don't appreciate bright lights in their eyes while resting any more than you would.)
