Spawning of milkfish, Chanos chanos, in captivity

Newly captured milkfish released 0.8 mm in diameter non-hydrated eggs spontaneously in captivity. After injection with partially purified salmon gonadotropin (SG-G100), 1.2 mm in diameter hydrated eggs were released. These eggs, however, were not fertilized.
