  • Repeat injections can be given to fish treated long before normal spawning

    • Injecting Ovaplant™:

    • Injection - Inject using the Ralgun implanter into the dorsal sinus. Ensure that both males and females are injected at the same time. Inject Ovaplant™ carefully, and quickly remove the Ralgun needle. Gently place the fish into a container of fresh, aerated water.
    • Recovery - After the fish has recovered from sedation (5 to 10 minutes), return it to the breeding tank. More than one fish may be induced at the same time.

      • Sedation for Handling: If sedation is required, use a plastic or glass tank of sufficient size to hold the fish. Anesthetize with TMS (MS222, Tricaine methanesulfonate) or Aquacalm at the recommended level, make sure to mix thoroughly BEFORE adding the fish. Always handle fish gently. Avoid contact between the anesthetic solution and eggs or milt.
