Species | Development state | Trait | Primary Data | Secondary Data |
Morone saxatilis | Egg | Incubation time | Larvae hatched within 3 days post-fertilization at 16.1°C | 3.0 days |
Morone saxatilis | Egg | Egg Buoyancy | Most eggs were maintained in the water column by the upwelling current generated by micropore aeration around the central standpipe and the 1.1 liter per min circular flow of incoming water below the surface | No category |
Morone saxatilis | Larvae | Temperature during larval development | The water temperature increased from 15.7 to 18.7°C during the 2-week experiment | 15.7 °C |
Morone saxatilis | Larvae | Full yolk-sac resorption | In stripped bass, inflated swibladders are first detected at 5-7 days post-hatching (dph) at 18°C, which coincides with the completion of yolk absorption, initiation of first feeding and peak larval specific gravities | 6.0 °C * day |
Morone saxatilis | Larvae | Onset of exogeneous feeding | Larvae were fed Artemia from 6 days post-hatching. Larvae with food in their gut were first observed at 7 dph in the black tanks and one day later in white tanks | 6.0 °C * day |
