How long do largemouth guard their fry?
Guarding can continue from eggs through the early free-swimming fry stage. A compact group of young fish near a guarding male is a brood, not proof that all adults are still spawning. Duration varies with temperature, development and brood survival; calendar dates cannot identify the end of guarding.
