Hairy scale fish are distributed in a wide range of sea areas and only approach the coast for a short time in a year. Newfoundland waters began to approach the coast in April, and laid eggs from late June to mid-July. Spawning ranges from sandbars to four deep offshore waters. When the waves hit the beach, they are like hairy fish laying eggs. The water temperature is 2.8~ 10.7℃, the optimum range is 6.2~8.4℃, and the salinity range is very wide, 6.5~25.8. After the eggs are laid, they are attached to sand or stone, with the grain size range of 0.5~22mm for sand and 5~ 15mm for stone.
