For medium to large fish, whole or cut seafood may be force fed. For example, in rockfish (Sebastes spp.) under chemical restraint, the fish can be held in a vertical position and food gently placed into the cranial esophagus using forceps. In sharks and batoids, an appropriate‐diameter PVC tube may be placed in the mouth and prey may be pushed through on a feeding pole or plunger. It is easier to force feed firm dietary items, e.g. partially thawed butterfish (Stromateidae).
