The answer to this question depends on what species of fish you are specifically asking about. The record for swordtails is 300, but whilst this seems like a large amount, keep in consideration that is a humongous accomplishment if even 20 percent of the eggs survive. Other species, such as the cardinal tetra, rarely breed in captivity, so you should not keep your hopes up for them. One species that rapidly and frequently breeds is the guppy. Guppies may leave you wishing you had not chosen to breed them in the first place. You should probably expect at least fifty or so eggs, and don't be crushed if all of the eggs don't survive. Like I mentioned earlier, even twenty percent of survivors is quite an amazing feat.
Most fish will reproduce when conditions are favourable. This can occur as often as every 6 to 8 weeks in many species, although there are some species that can only spawn once in a lifetime. Different species have different breeding requirements and stimuli.
No, most fish species reproduce multiple times throughout their lifespan. They typically spawn eggs or give birth to live young regularly to maintain their populations.
No, fish reproduce sexually, its just nothing like OUR sexual reproduction.

What type of fish can't reproduce?
Sterile ones, like most of the corn grown today (in the US).
How do icefish reproduce?
Icefish reproduce through internal fertilization, where the male releases sperm into the female's body to fertilize her eggs. Once fertilized, the female lays her eggs in the water for external development. The eggs will hatch into larvae, which then grow and develop into mature icefish.
How do fish get married?
Fish do not get married in the same way humans do. They reproduce by laying eggs and fertilizing them externally. Some fish species may engage in courtship behaviors before spawning, but this is for the purpose of reproduction rather than forming a lifelong partnership.
How fish reproduce?
Fish reproduce by laying eggs, which are fertilized externally by the male releasing sperm over the eggs. The fertilized eggs develop into fry, which hatch and grow into adult fish. Some fish give birth to live young instead of laying eggs.
Is a fish sexual or asexual?
Fish are sexual and reproduce by fornication. Most fish have both male and female reproductive organs, although some species can change sex during their lifetime. Fertilization can be external or internal, depending on the species.
Do fish reproduce only?
Some fish do in fact only reproduce one time. Other fish can reproduce as many times as they would l like.
Do fish get guppies?
A male and a female fish will almost always reproduce once they are old enough.
How many times a year do fresh water fish breed?
It depends on what kind of fish they are; tropical fish will reproduce many times in a year, whereas many temperate species will only do so once a year.
Do fish reproduce asexualy?
Fish sexually reproduce.
How do stare fish reproduce?
Star fish reproduce by splitting. They are asexual so they don't need a partner to reproduce.
What do fish reproduce?
More fish.
Can a male betta fish reproduce by himself?
Answer No. Only Females. But you would need a male.
Can fish under 1 year reproduce?
Most livebearing fish such as mollies, platys, and guppys begin having fry (baby fish) once they hit 4 months of age.
How do moonfish reporduce?
The moon fish reproduce by spawning. All fish reproduce by spawning.
Does a Clown fish reproduce?
No, clown fish do not reproduce. They just appear out of thin air.
Why are we only allowed to catch fish over a certain size?
Probably so that the population can regenerate; if you catch all the younger fish that reproduce or haven't had a chance to reproduce you end up with an endangered species.
Do bony fish reproduce sexually or asexually?
Bony fish reproduce sexually. No pun intended.
