Investigates water temperature effects on growth and survival in a threatened fish species, suggesting vital conservation strategies.

The study aims to understand how different water temperatures influence the developmental phases of crucian carp.
Examined developmental timing at three temperatures: 13, 19, and 25 °C.
Assessed impact of nine temperatures (7–31 °C) on key growth milestones.
Measured incubation duration, hatching, and exogenous feeding onset.
Higher temperatures accelerated development and hatching.
Optimal growth occurred at 28 °C, with no hatching below 10 °C.
Thermal tolerance zone identified as 10–31 °C; optimal range is 16–28 °C.

Prokešová et al. (2026) studied this question.
