Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 26.6 - 29.3, mean 28.6 °C (based on 1091 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01023 (0.00477 - 0.02194), b=3.02 (2.84 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
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 = 861 [366, 2,844] mg/100g; Iron = 2.64 [1.32, 5.79] mg/100g; Protein = 17.4 [15.4, 19.1] %; Omega3 = 0.275 [0.095, 0.700] g/100g; Selenium = 41.7 [15.0, 106.1] μg/100g; VitaminA = 38.4 [9.4, 146.3] μg/100g; Zinc = 3.72 [2.20, 6.03] mg/100g (wet weight);
