A number of fish species that have or potentially have great economic significance for aquaculture do not reproduce spontaneously in captivity. Hormone-induced spawning is the only reliable method to induce reproduction in these fishes. Surprisingly, the same procedures, with only minor modifications, have been used to spawn an entire range of fishes from the ancient sturgeon and paddlefish to carp, catfish, salmon, sea bass, redfish, snook, and mullet.
