Cultured nine years old breeder M. cephalus specimens were subjected to eight artificial breeding treatments from December till February 2003. In treatments 1-5, breeders received two injections of CPH and LIIRFI—A2 coupled with Domperidone or a mixture of CPH and HCG in an interval of 24 hours. Female breeders in treatments 6-8 received a gradual daily injection of 500 1U HCG per kilogram of body weight for 5 days. Male breeders in treatments 6-8 were given 5-10mg of MT-a-17 in addition to HCG and then subjected to two injections similar to that of treatments 1-5. Results showed that male breeders in stages +2 and +3 of all treatments that had received HCG produced more milt than those injected with MT-a-17, such that each male was used 2-6 times for milting purposes. Of 27 female breeders, 22 spawned 1-2.6 million eggs among which eight females' eggs were fertilized 10-95%. Hatching rate was between 0.008 to 88.9% and a maximum of 2 million larvae were produced. The best time for art.....
