Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 19.5 - 27.8, mean 25.7 °C (based on 764 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5002   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00501 (0.00207 - 0.01214), b=3.15 (2.94 - 3.36), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.3   ±0.42 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 = 32 [12, 58] mg/100g; Iron = 0.231 [0.118, 0.536] mg/100g; Protein = 18.1 [15.1, 20.4] %; Omega3 = 0.279 [0.135, 0.560] g/100g; Selenium = 7.58 [2.94, 19.28] μg/100g; VitaminA = 87.1 [17.7, 502.4] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.849 [0.518, 1.627] mg/100g (wet weight);
