This review examines the initial swimbladder inflation in cultured finfish larvae and the
mechanisms controlling body buoyancy and the distribution of larvae during the critical early …

Dominance-based social hierarchies are common among teleost fishes. The rank of an
animal greatly affects its behaviour, physiology and development. The outcome of fights for …

Underwater noise pollution is a growing problem in aquatic environments and as such may
be a major source of stress for fish. In the present study, we addressed the effects of ship …

The objective of this study was to investigate the possible link between cadmium exposure,
hepatic markers of oxidative stress and aggressive behavior in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis …

Prerequisites for understanding dispersal in pelagic larvae of demersal fishes are data on
when swimming abilities of larvae are sufficiently developed to be able to alter passive …

Swim bladder inflation (SBI) is a fundamental step in larval development for both
physostome and physoclist fish species. Failure of the SBI triggers higher energy …

The most massive teleost, the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), is an order of magnitude smaller
than the largest cartilaginous fish, the whale shark (Rhincodon typus), and issignificantly …

A captive population of C alifornia yellowtail (S eriola lalandi) was used to document
spawning patterns, including measures of egg production, population fecundity and egg and …

Optimizing the growth and survival of marine fish larvae, while reducing the cost of
production, is important for the development of viable hatcheries on an industrial scale. This …

Two experiments were conducted in triplicate in order to study the effect of stocking densities
on survival (highlighting sibling cannibalism), growth and feeding of intensively cultured sea …
