Folks:

I wonder if anyone has an estimate of how many times a female bicolor 
damselfish (Stegastes partitus) will spawn over the course of a season.  
I know they spawn around the full moon, but I've been unable to find out 
if it's every month or every other month, etc.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Cheers,
Sean
