To enhance ornamental fish production through studying induced breeding, embryonic development, and larval growth of Japanese koi.
Brooders injected with Ovaprim hormone to induce breeding.
Experiment conducted in a controlled environment at an ornamental fish hatchery.
Egg fertilization and larval survival were measured under specific conditions.
Fertilization rate was recorded at 91%.
Larvae hatched within 45-48 hours at 26-28°C.
Survival rate reached 87% with live food and pellet feed.

Salunkhe et al. (2026) studied this question.
