Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 26.2 - 29.3, mean 28.7 °C (based on 1520 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.6250   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.4   ±0.45 se; based on food items. Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 186 [94, 402] mg/100g; Iron = 0.987 [0.515, 1.791] mg/100g; Protein = 19.2 [16.9, 21.6] %; Omega3 = 0.124 [0.050, 0.339] g/100g; Selenium = 13.5 [6.0, 37.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 331 [96, 1,081] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.16 [1.34, 3.37] mg/100g (wet weight);
