Abstract/Description: | Grey mullet, Mugil cephalus, is one of the most widely distributed food fi shes in the world (McDonough et al., 2003). In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the fi sh, locally known as Biah or Wagena, is considered as one of the most highly demanded fi sh. However, it was recently recognized that the landings of this species have drastically decreased and its presence in the local fi sh markets became rare (MAF, 2003). In captivity, grey mullets do not spawn spontaneously and that could be achieved successfully by hormone administration (Lee and Tamaru, 1988, El-Gharabawy and Assem, 2006). This has lead to increasing interest by the Aquaculture Center, Abu Al Abyad Island (ACAAB), Emirate of Abu Dhabi, UAE to propagate the fi sh. The ACAAB is situated in Abu Al Abyad Island which is the major island of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi covering an area of 490 km2. The island is characterised by its harsh environmental conditions where water temperature and salinity during summer time reach as high as 36 ºC and 58 ppt, respectively (Al Abdessalaam and Yousif, 2002).The results of the fi rst induced spawning and larviculture trials of this species under the environmental conditions of Abu Al Abyad Island (50 -55 ppt) are presented in this article. |
