摘要
To advance breeding techniques for the African freshwater pufferfish Tetraodon schoutedeni and observe tandem spawning closely, we monitored the reproduction of captive individuals. Eight spawning sessions (stable water temperature 24-25 degrees C; daily light period 07:00-19:00) occurred between May 2016 and November 2017. After 65-150 min of tandem swimming (the male biting and clinging to the female's abdomen), 3-50 spherical, weakly adhesive eggs were spawned, being scattered onto the sandy substrate or water plants. The removal of cohabitants (potentially eating spawned eggs) and provision of small initial food items, such as small-type Brachionus spp., for larval fish were essential for successful breeding.
