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.

Females release eggs in batches of about 30,000 eggs, though very large fish deposit an estimated as many as 156,000 eggs. Total annual egg production is 200,000–600,000 eggs per female, with larger fish producing more.
