Spawning behavior of belted sandtish in nature and in aquaria (190 and 380-liter. E. Clark, pers. comm., 1992) was described by Clark (1959, 1965), but egg production was not investigated and no fish were reared. Hastings and Bortone (1980) described habitat, age and growth, feeding, reproductive morphology, and spawning season in west Florida waters. This report focuses on the number and quality of eggs produced by two pairs of captive wild belted sandfish and subsequent spawning of two of their progeny.
