“…At the beginning of the segmentation period in mahi, early body pigmentation and individual cardiomyocytes are visible. Urea transporter genes also begin their expression . At 22 hpf (SL = 2.6‐2.8 mm; 26 somites; Figure P), the onset of the heartbeat begins with irregular peristaltic movements, which closely resemble those of the Zebrafish embryo, where heartbeat occurs at ~24 hpf.…”

“…From 8 hpf, gastrulation takes place with the appearance of the embryonic shield (Figure J). Physiologically, urea and ammonia excretion have been measured during early gastrulation (Table ).…”

“…Heart rate frequency then increases with further development . Urea transporter gene expression peaks around 36 hpf . Erythropoiesis is initiated from transparent circulating blood cells, and circulation in the central vasculature appears as a modest flow during hatching (43 hpf) (SL = 3.9‐4.0 mm).…”

“…Erythropoiesis is initiated from transparent circulating blood cells, and circulation in the central vasculature appears as a modest flow during hatching (43 hpf) (SL = 3.9‐4.0 mm). At this point in development, ammonia transporter (Rhag and Rhbg) gene expression increases as urea transporter expression decreases . Complete morphological constriction between the atrium and ventricle is seen during the hatching period, and the heart (including bulbus arteriosus) initiates its S‐folding configuration at 50 hpf (SL = 4.3‐4.5 mm).…”

“…In summary, mahi are large pelagic fish (Figure Z) with high energetic requirements necessary to maintain their “high‐performance” lifestyle . Their physiological and metabolic capacities are therefore elevated for the increased supply of energy, oxygen, and substrate needed for swimming performance and routine activities compared to those of more established fish models (eg, killifish, medaka, Zebrafish).…”

Background Mahi‐mahi ( Coryphaena hippurus ) is a commercially and ecologically important fish species that is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical waters. Biological attributes and reproductive capacities of mahi‐mahi make it a tractable model for experimental studies. In this study, life development of cultured mahi‐mahi from the zygote stage to adult has been described. Results A comprehensive developmental table has been created reporting development as primarily detailed observations of morphology. Additionally, physiological, behavioral, and molecular landmarks have been described to significantly contribute in the understanding of mahi life development. Conclusion Remarkably, despite the vast difference in adult size, many developmental landmarks of mahi map quite closely onto the development and growth of Zebrafish and other warm‐water, active Teleost fishes.
