Nassau groupers (Epinephelus striatus) were reared from eggs. The planktonic larvae began transforming into juveniles and orienting to solid surfaces 42 days after hatching (dab); some had finished by 46 dah and all by 70 dab. At 98 dab, total lengths were in the range 49-95 mm and weights 1.7-12.8 g (mean 6.0 g). At 243 dab, total lengths were in the range 81-203 mm and weights 7.0-143.1 g (mean 52.3 g). Survival during 98-243 dah was 97% (109/112). Proceedings can be found online at http://www.gcfi.org/, Gulf and Caribbean Fisheries Institute.
