| Species | Development state | Trait | Primary Data | Secondary Data |
| Cyprinus carpio | Egg | Oocyte diameter | Average diameter of unfertilized eggs immediatly after spawning was 1.2-1.6 mm (mean1.3 mm) | 1.4 mm |
| Cyprinus carpio | Egg | Egg size after water-hardening | After fertilization and swelling the diameter was 2.1-2.5 mm (mean 2.3 mm) | 2.3 mm |
| Cyprinus carpio | Egg | Incubation time | Time from egg activation to mass hatching,in hours was: 75 [At 19.2-22.4°C], 126 [At 18-20.9°C], 171.5 [At 14.7-20.9°C] | 20.8 days |
| Cyprinus carpio | Egg | Temperature for incubation | Long periods of temperatures of <16°C are detrimental for embryonic development. Carp embryos are more sensitive to low temperatures than larvae. Carp larvae hatched from eggs that had been exposed to 14-17°C had shortened body trunk, curvature of tail and large unresorbed yolk sac | 15.5 °C |
| Cyprinus carpio | Larvae | Initial larval size | Total length of newly hatched larvae is 5.6-6.3 mm (mean 5.7 mm); length of head is 1.0-1.4 mm (mean 1.2 mm), body weight is about 1 mg | 5.95 mm |
