Abstract
A natural controlled spawning of pike-perch is suggested as the prevai ling method providing good results in terms of embryo survival and fry production. Techniques of hormonal induction combined with water temp erature manipulation are progressively developed. The eggs are most co mmonly incubated with the 'nest', or in Zug jars in the case of artifi cial fertilization. The larvae are then transferred into specific cont ainers for their yolk absorption. The success rate from egg to free-sw imming fry is 60-70%.
