FAQ 312: 14.1.2 Need for inducement

14.1.2 Need for inducement

14.1.2 Need for inducement

Under captive conditions, the maturity and spawning do not take place for some of the shrimp species, eg, Tiger shrimp. Therefore, suitable inducement has become essential for the female and / or male shrimp brooders. The type of inducement varies from animal to animal based on their maturity condition.

Basically the inducements are needed for the shrimps, for the following reasons:

1. They depend on a specific ground for maturation
2. Specific micro climatic conditions are required for maturation
3. Specific feed is required for maturation
4. Dependence on the endocrine system for the maturation
5. Presence of bihormonal action in the animals
