Species | Development state | Trait | Primary Data | Secondary Data |
Blicca bjoerkna | Spawning conditions | Spawning migration period | In the spring, when water temperatue is about 10-14°C | ['April', 'May', 'June'] |
Abramis brama | Spawning conditions | Spawning migration period | In the spring, when water temperatue is about 10-14°C | ['April', 'May', 'June'] |
Aristichthys nobilis | Male | Weight at sexual maturity | Most of the caught individuals weigthed 6-12 kg; this size is a characteristic of the sexually mature individuals | 9.0 kg |
Aristichthys nobilis | Spawning conditions | Spawning migration period | In May, there is an increasing amount of adults, probably as a result of the start of the crowding process that usually precedes the upstream migration. In June, the capture was the largest one; it signalises the peak of migration. The water temperature is of 19°C to 24°C | ['May', 'June'] |
Aristichthys nobilis | Spawning conditions | Spawning season | The grass carp spawns earlier, at a lower temperature than silver carp and big head | No data |
Aristichthys nobilis | Spawning conditions | Spawning temperature | The water temperature stabilized for a relatively large period of time in the interval of 18°C to at least 22°C | 18.0 °C |
Aristichthys nobilis | Spawning conditions | Spawning water type | The existence and the persistence of the increasing water level, the water flow up to 3 m per second | No category |
Aristichthys nobilis | Spawning conditions | Spawning substrate | The silver carp an the grass carp seem to prefer the superficial waters as well as the big head stay in the deeper horizons of the water | Phytophils |
Carassius auratus | Spawning conditions | Spawning migration period | In the spring, when water temperatue is about 10-14°C | ['April', 'May', 'June'] |
Ctenopharyngodon idella | Male | Weight at sexual maturity | Most of the caught individuals weigthed 6-12 kg; this size is a characteristic of the sexually mature individuals | 9.0 kg |

Cyprinus carpio | Female | Age at sexual maturity | The common carp becomes sexualy mature in the Romanian Danube River at the age of 4 years for female | 4.0 year |
Cyprinus carpio | Female | Length at sexual maturity | Beetween means of 36.2 to 41.0 according to different areas for females | 36.2 cm |
Cyprinus carpio | Female | Absolute fecundity | Average of 85 | 85.0 thousand eggs |
Cyprinus carpio | Male | Age at sexual maturity | The common carp becomes sexualy mature in the Romanian Danube River at the age of 3 years for male | 3.0 years |
Cyprinus carpio | Male | Length at sexual maturity | Between means of 28.9 to 34.9 according to different areas for males | 28.9 cm |
Cyprinus carpio | Spawning conditions | Spawning migration period | The carp migration usually starts in April when the water temperature is about 12°C and it has the highest intensity in May when the water temperature is aournd 16°C. The water temperature of 18°C to 20°C is the optimum for spawning. | ['April', 'May'] |
