Section outline

    • キアンコウの赤ちゃん

    • Baby of yellow goosefish

      They are unable to survive on their own immediately after birth and grow for a while in an “egg veil”.

      They are about the size of a pencil lead.


    • 子供の成長

    • Growth of fry

      They grow on egg yolk (nourishment provided by their mother).

      When their fins grow long enough for them to swim, they emerge from the “egg veil”.

      They feed and grow.

      The ecology of them beyond this point is not yet well known.


    • 子供の飼育


      Rearing tank

    • Rearing of larvae and juvenile

      Goal: To raise fish from hatching to juvenile

      The ecology in early life stages, which is difficult to know in the field, can be understood.
