Discussion

  • males as supposed not to differ from females
  • mod_1: larval growth data added

Facts

  • Preferred temperature 8.8 C (Ref: fishbase)
  • Differences between males and females are small (Ref: fishbase)
  • Length-Weight relationship: W in g = 0.01023*(SL in cm)^3.10 (Ref: fishbase)
