Oral incubation
The female Apogon lays around twenty thousand eggs which are immediately clumped together into a compact spawn. But it is the male who collects the spawning ball in the mouth in preparation for incubating the eggs.
The male apogon will hatch (one week) and incubate the eggs by oxygenating them. This paternalism is characteristic of apogonids
