Only about 1% to 5% of fish eggs typically survive to reach adulthood. This low survival rate is due to various factors, including predation, environmental conditions, and competition for resources. Different species of fish may have varying survival rates, but the vast majority of eggs do not survive to maturity.

Why do amphibians lay 200 eggs?
Because frogs have a high mortality rate, meaning that a high percentage of the eggs will never make it to adulthood. They lay a lot of eggs because even if 1% of the eggs make it to adulthood, if you lay 5,000 eggs you still get 50 that make it to adulthood.
Why don't humans make lots of eggs like fish?
Fish put their energy into making lots of eggs, only a few of which will hatch and life to adulthood. Humans and other mammals put lots of energy into ensuring the survival to adulthood on a very few offspring. Individuals don't have enough energy to do both, so some animals do one and some do the other.
Why do fish produce more eggs than mammals?
It's a survival thing. Many eggs are eaten before they have a chance to hatch. Many are eaten shortly after hatching. The chances are that 9 of 10 won't make it the first week, then even if they do, their chances of survival diminish quickly.
Why do fish produce so many eggs?
Of the many eggs fish lay, very few reach adulthood. The eggs are preyed on by many aquatic creatures, and the hatched fry are still in danger of being eaten. Only by laying so many eggs can the species have a chance of surviving.
How many offspring of a bullfrog will survive?
Bullfrogs can lay thousands of eggs in a single breeding season, but only a small percentage of these eggs will survive to adulthood. Factors such as predation, environmental conditions, and competition for resources significantly affect survival rates. Typically, only a few tadpoles from each clutch will make it to adulthood, with estimates suggesting that less than 1% of eggs may survive to become mature bullfrogs.
Do fish have babies out of there butt?
No, Because fish don't have the baby's right away they make eggs. Then the eggs hatch and then they become baby fish.

Why do frogs and butterflies lay more eggs at a time?
Because these are animals that we would classify as having a high mortality rate. Meaning, that the percentage of eggs that make it to adulthood is very low. They compensate for this by laying a lot more eggs at a time, ensuring that a greater number make it to adulthood. That is also why humans only have one offspring at a time, and rarely more. Because our mortality rate is so low, that it is not necessary for our species survival to have more than one.
If you sperm on fish eggs does it make mermaids?
No, sperm cannot fertilize fish eggs to create a mermaid. Mermaids are mythical creatures and not a product of human and fish reproduction.
