wrong water I used.

Fish vary in the number of young they produce and the way in which they produce them. For example, Guppies and platies are live-bearing fish, which means that they give birth to live, free swimming young, usually around 50-100 young per birthing, whereas betta's create bubble nests and eggs are placed into this by the father who then guards the nest and the young until they are able to fend for themselves.

As far as the water goes, you should not use straight tap water...ever! The chlorine and other chemicals contained within tap water to make it suitable for human consumption are often lethal to fish. You should remove these chemicals and heavy metals by either filtering the water using a reverse osmosis unit, or you should by a water treatment designed for use in aquaria (you can readily buy these at your local pet or fish store).

Answer 2

loads It depends what kind of fish it is, how heavy it is and how tall the eggs are.. A trout will lay 1500 - 2500 eggs / 1 kg weight. Another fish, which is called "Döbel" ( I couldn´t find a translation :-( ) will lay between 40000 - 50000 / 1 kg weight. Fishes, who give birth, like a whale or a dolphin usually have one or two offsprings.

Humanizing birth means understanding that the woman giving birth is a human being, not a machine and not just a container for making babies. Showing women---half of all people---that they are inferior and inadequate by taking away their power to give birth is a tragedy for all society. On the other hand, respecting the woman as an important and valuable human being and making certain that the woman's experience while giving birth is fulfilling and empowering is not just a nice extra, it is absolutely essential as it makes the woman strong and therefore makes society strong.

Humanized birth means putting the woman giving birth in the center and in control so that she and not the doctors or anyone else makes all the decisions about what will happen. Humanized birth means understanding that the focus of maternity services is community based primary care, not hospital based tertiary care with midwives, nurses and doctors all working together in harmony as equals. Humanized birth means maternity services which are based on good scientific evidence including evidence based use of technology and drugs.

But we do not have humanized birth in many places today. Why? Because fish can't see the water they swim in. Birth attendants, be they doctors, midwives or nurses, who have experienced only hospital based, high interventionist, medicalized birth cannot see the profound effect their interventions are having on the birth. These hospital birth attendants have no idea what a birth looks like without all the interventions, a birth which is not dehumanized. This widespread inability to know what normal, humanized birth is has been summarized by the World Health Organization:

"By medicalizing birth, i.e. separating a woman from her own environment and surrounding her with strange people using strange machines to do strange things to her in an effort to assist her, the woman's state of mind and body is so altered that her way of carrying through this intimate act must also be altered and the state of the baby born must equally be altered. The result it that it is no longer possible to know what births would have been like before these manipulations. Most health care providers no longer know what "non-medicalized birth is. The entire modern obstetric and neonatological literature is essentially based on observations of "medicalized" birth.

Freshwater Fish breed in many different ways. Species are so diverse that it would be impossible to describe them all. Basically you have two types of breeders, live bearers such as guppies, mollies etc... These fish give birth to live young. The other fish are egg layers. Different species have different mating habits. If you are a casual hobbyist and don't plan on setting up a breeding tank you will not see many fish breed. Of course live bearers will breed readily in the home aquarium. Many fish need very specific water conditions to breed. Some require floating plants, some an increase in water temperature, some very specific pH and soft or hard water. If you want to get into breeding do research and set up a separate breeding tank.

Answer 5

It depends on the species. Some fish have as few as 20 per clutch, where others produce thousands of eggs and larvae.

Answer 6

An AnglerFish can have between 30-100 eggs at a time.
