Unfortunately, they generally don't. A female swordfish releases as many as 1 million eggs into water after fertilization, and they are kept afloat on the surface by means of a drop of oil surrounding their egg. Young swordfish typically have to fend for themselves. There have actually been many cases of a swordfish eating their own young (Cannibalism).

They don't. they usually die immediately after spawning, so they don't even get a chance to. Atlantic salmon, however, don't die after spawning, but they are so exhausted after spawning that they go right back out to sea.

The young act on their own instincts, which are very strong.

Though it is true that there is little parental care in most fish it does exist it varying degrees.

In most fish it doesn't go much further than finding a good spot to lay their eggs. In a few cases a fish will defend the place where the eggs are laid.

In sea-horses the males actually hold eggs in pouch on their tummy until they hatch at which point the male "gives birth" (there is no more care after this).

In general though parental care is minimal at that is why fish lay so many eggs. Biologists call this an "r" strategy of breeding (lots of young, no parental care) as opposed to a "K" strategy (few young lots of parental care - like in humans). Animals range the whole spectrum between these two extremes.

Most fish will eat the baby fish unless eggs are separated from the mother and placed in another tank, but that may not be true for all fish.
