| Description of life cycle and mating behavior | Larvae stay within the female fish until they are approximately 1 mm long before they are released into the water (Ref. 6390). In Australia, the inshore and offshore forms of ocean perch begin mating at different times and there is a difference in the length of their larval development prior to release (Ref. 30468). |
