How do you figure out how old a fish is? Very carefully. Most fish have small​ bones in their inner ears​ called otoliths, made of calcium carbonate. They’re located in a fish’s inner ear and help with hearing and balance. As a fish grows, new layers of calcium carbonate are deposited in layers, much like the growth patterns seen in tree rings. We can count the growth rings to determine the fish’s age. Why not determine their age based on their size or weight? Like humans, fish stop growing at a

In this video, an FWC biologist demonstrates how to extract otoliths from a Florida largemouth bass. Otoliths, commonly known as "earstones," are hard, calcium carbonate structures located directly behind the brain of bony fishes. Biologists use otoliths to determine how old an individual fish is. These bones have rings very much like a tree trunk, and every year environmental triggers cause a new ring to form. There are several things researchers can gather from this information, and our web ar

How do you age a fish? As it turns out, kind of like a tree... Otoliths (Greek for “ear-stone”) are calcium carbonate structures found beneath the brain of most fish that aid in balance and hearing. Otoliths continuously accrete calcium carbonate throughout the fish’s life, forming bands on the otolith -- much like rings of a tree. Scientists can use these bands to tell the age of a fish. Scott France, our science lead on our previous Voyage to the Ridge expedition, explains more in this video.
