This paper considers an M-member "individual-based" continuous time swarm model with individuals moving with a nutrient profile (or an attractant/repellent) in an n-dimensional space. It is proved that the swarm members aggregate and eventually form a cohesive cluster of finite size for Gaussian Profiles. Moreover, all the swarm members will converge to more favorable areas of the Gaussian profile under certain conditions.
