Hatching Period

The duration of this period is from 48 to 72hours

  • Transitions from Long-Pec to Protruding-mouth
  • In this period, primary organ systems develop and cartilage development begins
  • Pectorial fins are now elongated with a flat blade but still developing
  • Jaws and Gills are also developing along side the pectorial fins
  • Olfactory placodes are now developed in the anterior of the eye
  • Hair Cells have differentiated
  • The mouth is wide open and protrudes anteriorly just beyond the eye
  • The first visible bone in the zebrafish, the cleithrum, can be seen between the first two myotomes
  • Subintestinal vein is also prominant ventrally to the gut tract formation
