摘要

The Mummichog Fundulus heteroclitus is a popular marine baitfish in the species' natural range along the east coast of North America from Florida to the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Interest in commercial culture of Mummichogs has grown over the last two decades, but little research has been conducted to examine species-specific culture techniques; thus, Mummichog culture has not advanced. Our objectives were to evaluate the performance of two egg collectors designed to mimic the structures of natural substrates and to maximize labor efficiency. A tray-style collector (TSC) and a disk-style collector (DSC) were both placed in each of six 5,000-L tanks stocked with approximately 700 adult Mummichogs of both sexes. The numbers of eggs collected, fertilized eggs, and viable larvae that hatched as well as the time required to rinse collectors during each biweekly collection were compared between the two designs. Over the 8-week study, there was no significant difference between designs in terms of the number of eggs collected or the total rinse time. However, the percentage of unfertilized eggs collected was twice as high for TSCs (mean +/- SD = 8.53 +/- 0.59%) than for DSCs (4.42 +/- 0.36%). Additionally, larval yield was significantly higher for DSCs (79.10 +/- 12.93%) than for TSCs (72.63 +/- 13.95%). Based on these results, we conclude that both designs are efficient at collecting Mummichog eggs and that the DSC is the more advantageous design for maximizing fertilization rate and larval yield.
