Species | Development state | Trait | Primary Data | Secondary Data |
Salvelinus fontinalis | Larvae | Reaction to light | The trough was covered with black plastic sheeting since salmonid fry are negatively phototactic | Photophobic |
Salvelinus fontinalis | Spawning conditions | Spawning substrate | Gravels [Fines (small and smaller particles) in spawning gravel can be deleterious to eggs | Lithophils |
Salvelinus fontinalis | Spawning conditions | Spawning site preparation | Redds | Susbtrate chooser |
Salvelinus fontinalis | Spawning conditions | Spawning release | Repeat spawning has been reported for brrok trout, but the accounts of successive spawning indicate that such behavior may lead to the deposition of ova in seperate pockets within a redd | No category |
Salvelinus fontinalis | Egg | Temperature for incubation | 9-10 | 9.5 °C |
