Nurseries
Fish larvae grow best in a sea environment where there is a large supply of food: the nurseries. The parent fish chooses spawning places situated in such a way that the eggs and larvae will be transported to the nursery grounds with the currents in a travel time equivalent to the duration of the developing stage from larvae to juvenile fish. The coastal waters and the Wadden Sea are important nurseries for many species of fish.
