Blue Tilapia spawning in an aquarium. Several smaller tilapia rush in trying to eat some eggs and wind up scattering many of the eggs.

Zach, It's 10 days from spawn to hatch, another 10 days to absorb the yolk sac and beging eating and then only anothe 5.5-8.5 months to 1.5 pounds

How long does it take these to hatch once they are fertilized and picked back up?

Actually, Mush Mouth went into a pond in Indiana. She didn't hold any of her eggs, but another fish that was ready to spawn took a lot of them and added her own a couple hours later after her own spawn.
