Adult fish also prey on fish eggs and larvae. For example, haddock were observed satiating themselves with herring eggs back in 1922. [14] Another study found cod in a herring spawning area with 20,000 herring eggs in their stomachs, and concluded that they could prey on half of the total egg production. [17] Fish also cannibalise their own eggs.
Unlike most fish, the Asian arowana reaches sexual maturity relatively late, after 3–4 yr. The females produce few eggs, 30–100, which are quite large.

Some fish have thick, leathery coats, especially if they must withstand physical force or desiccation. These type of eggs can also be very small and ...

[4] At this stage, the fish is typically about the size of a human finger, [5] hence the name. Once reaching this stage, the fish can be considered a juvenile, and is usually active enough to move around a large ...
