Description

As the agency reported it.

This will entail catching adult broodstock from offshore waters off the kona coast, and holding them in tanks at the natural energy laboratory of hawaii authority. Natural spawning season is from may through october. Building on the spawning season, some tanks of fish will be treated with a spawning hormone, and other control tanks will be left untreated. Spawning activity will be monitored daily. Gonad status will be monitored through catheterization occasionally throughout the spawning cycle. EGG quality will be evaluated for each spawn. Larvae from good quality spawns will be transferred to self-cleaning larval tanks. Standard operating procedures developed successfully for other marine fish will be applied. We will compare different feed sizes and contrast mediums during larval rearing to learn if they impact survival and defor
