Cobia eggs. Photo by Ron Hoenig
I had a chance to check out some fantastic photos by the Rosenstiel School’s Aquaculture program courtesy of Hatchery Manager Ron Hoenig. In the above photo you can see a handful of Cobia eggs. Ron noted that with each spawn, the Cobia are producing between 1 and 1.2 million eggs per fish, which is roughly every 2 weeks for each female.

This is a great view of the bull Mahi. You can see the dorsal fin sticking out the water. Below is a group shot of some 4.5 month old Mahi offspring. The adult Mahi have adjusted very well after being introduced to the Aquaculture program last year.
