The Length_Larvae file gives the data used to measure the effect of; carotenoids in eggs, red intensity of eggs, the condition factor and red intensity of the abdomen the on length of the larvae.
Each row donates one cup of eggs.

The column headings are defined as follows:

Female:				Female ID (Factor)
Male:				Male ID (Factor)
Replikat:			Replicate (1 or 2)
Tank:				Tank ID (1 or 2)
IR_Abdomen:			Red intensity of the female abdomen
IR_eggs:			Red intensity of the eggs
K_rel:				Condition factor of the female
Length_larvae:			The length of the larvae (cm)
Carotenoids_HPLC:		Total mass of carotenoids in eggs (ng/egg)
