Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 24.5 - 27.4, mean 25.9 °C (based on 204 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00102 (0.00046 - 0.00225), b=3.06 (2.88 - 3.24), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.6   ±0.56 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 102 [36, 224] mg/100g; Iron = 0.772 [0.381, 1.500] mg/100g; Protein = 19.3 [18.0, 20.5] %; Omega3 = 0.133 [0.060, 0.281] g/100g; Selenium = 6.75 [2.63, 18.28] μg/100g; VitaminA = 108 [28, 429] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.37 [0.76, 2.28] mg/100g (wet weight);
