      We have so many adult zebrafish in our fish facility because my supervisor has been working with them for over 15 years. Therefore, he has produced many embryos and has grown them up to get many adult fish.

      Also, when we put a zebrafish couple together, they lay between 100 and 200 embryos. Hence, it is really easy to get lots of embryos for our experiments.
