At WWM Steven Pro makes reference to a paper (Reproductive Behavior and Rearing of the Damselfish, Neoglyphidodon melas (Cuvier), in the Aquarium). Eggs take ~6 days to hatch so I guess they don't hatch that small for a damsel, hence the B but I don't know. I couldn't find the whole paper or the abstract for this one.
Yep, digging night around here. ;) |
