• Injected as a single implant dose
• Can be injected immediately prior to the normal spawning season
• Spawning of groups can be advanced and synchronized
• Repeat injections can be given to fish treated long before normal spawning

Injecting Ovaplant™:

• Cleanliness - Ensure that all equipment is clean and, if possible, sterilized. Wear gloves.
• Injection - Inject using the Ralgun implanter into the dorsal sinus. Ensure that both males and females are injected at the same time. Inject Ovaplant™ carefully, and quickly remove the Ralgun needle. Gently place the fish into a container of fresh, aerated water.
• Recovery - After the fish has recovered from sedation (5 to 10 minutes), return it to the breeding tank. More than one fish may be induced at the same time.

Sedation for Handling: If sedation is required, use a plastic or glass tank of sufficient size to hold the fish. Anesthetize with TMS (MS222, Tricaine methanesulfonate) or Aquacalm at the recommended level, make sure to mix thoroughly BEFORE adding the fish. Always handle fish gently. Avoid contact between the anesthetic solution and eggs or milt.
