Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 27.4 - 29.3, mean 28.8 °C (based on 551 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01585 (0.00707 - 0.03555), b=2.95 (2.76 - 3.14), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.4   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
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 = 126 [72, 255] mg/100g; Iron = 0.97 [0.54, 1.89] mg/100g; Protein = 18.2 [15.2, 20.4] %; Omega3 = 0.17 [0.09, 0.30] g/100g; Selenium = 21.1 [11.3, 42.9] μg/100g; VitaminA = 287 [84, 1,051] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.95 [1.26, 3.10] mg/100g (wet weight);
