Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology 2023 FebThe fertilized eggs of cuttlefish are sticky eggs. Cuttlefish parents prefer to lay eggs on the attached substrates, which help increase the number of eggs and the hatching rate of fertilized eggs. If egg-attached substrates are sufficient, cuttlefish spawning will be reduced or even delayed. With the advances in the construction of marine nature reserves and research on artificial enrichment techniques, domestic and international experts have conducted research on different types and configurations of attachment substrates around cuttlefish resource enhancement. Based on the source of the substrates, we classified cuttlefish spawning substrates into two types, natural and artificial. By summarizing the differences, advantages, and disadvantages of the common economic cuttlefish spawning substrates in offshore areas worldwide, we sort out the functions of two different types of attachment bases, and discussed the practical applications of natural and artificial egg-attached substrates in spawning ground restoration and artificial enrichment. We proposed several thoughts on the future research directions of cuttlefish spawning attachment substrates, aiming to provide reasonable suggestions for cuttlefish habitat restoration, cuttlefish breeding and sustainable development of fishery resources.
