6 25 2014 Manchester Repro Check

Manchester WA

Mid 60's to mid 70s sunny

Participants: L. Christine Savolainen and Jake Heare

Performed the Anesthesia SOP modified with insulation on the treatment tub as well as ice blocks to keep temperatures within range. Found one brooder in the Northern population with minimal larvae and found one brooder from Dabob that had a very strange mix of eggs and what appeared to be semen. This might be evidence for an abortive spawn. also collected all mortalities from trays.
