YouTube Description
as posted by the channelChicago’s Shedd Aquarium has nursed a special kind of reef fish for the first time.
The pair in the aquarium are bumpy and yellow with splashes of red. In September, the female released a raft of tens of thousands of translucent eggs. The aquarists took them behind the scenes and worked to get the light, temperature and diet just right. As the larvae developed, their ranks thinned. Ultimately, just one larva transitioned into a juvenile — a pea-sized version of the adult.
Senior aquarist Jenny Richards named it Domino, and says this effort could help with raising other species — for conservation purposes, and to support commercial and recreational aquaculture.
