Hello fish folks,
I'm in a time crunch with a list of "have to do" things that hasn't gotten any shorter in weeks, or I'd be able to look this up for myself. Does anyone have a good feel for the duration of time that species in the following groups "typically" (if there is such a thing) spend as larvae--that is, post hatch until they would be big enough to gain some mobility and be better able to resist flow disturbances (either natural spates or regulated flows?). Specific region is mid Atlantic highlands (e.g., northwest PA). Major groupings are small percids, catostomids, cyprinids, and centrarchids. I would imagine there is some variability with temp. and other environmental factors. Any specific info or references welcome but I'm really just trying to judge the size of the ball park.
Thanks in advance
Doug
