Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 25.2 - 29.3, mean 28.5 °C (based on 1596 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5156   [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   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 86 [44, 175] mg/100g; Iron = 0.59 [0.32, 1.15] mg/100g; Protein = 18.2 [15.9, 20.8] %; Omega3 = 0.13 [0.05, 0.37] g/100g; Selenium = 21 [9, 49] μg/100g; VitaminA = 251 [58, 967] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.73 [1.11, 2.53] mg/100g (wet weight);
