Title: Recorded critical swimming speed of larval Amphiprion percula, Elacatinus lori, and Elacatinus colini measured throughout development from hatching through settlement from 2015-08-07 to 2015-11-30 (NCEI Accession 0291311)
Abstract: This dataset contains biological and survey - biological data collected from 2015-08-07 to 2015-11-30. These data include species. The instruments used to collect these data include Swimming Flume. These data were collected by Dr John Majoris and Dr Peter Buston of Boston University as part of the "Collaborative Research: The Role of Larval Orientation Behavior in Determining Population Connectivity (Elacatinus Dispersal II)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2019-06-07.

The following is the text of the dataset description provided by BCO-DMO:

Dataset Description:
Recorded critical swimming speed of larval Amphiprion percula, Elacatinus lori, and Elacatinus colini measured throughout development from hatching through settlement. Studies performed at Boston University, USA and the International Zoological Expeditions Field Station on South Water Caye, Belize (16o 48’ 92” N, 88o 04’ 89” W).

Supplementary information: Acquisition Description:
To determine the effect of fish age on the swimming speed of larvae from hatching through the onset of settlement, we evaluated the swimming speed (Ucrit) of A. percula larvae at 0, 4, and 8 dph (day post hatch), and of E. lori and E. colini at 0, 10, 20, and 30 dph . At the start of each trial, an individual larva was acclimated to the flume for 2 min with water flowing at a velocity of
