Discussion

  • males are assumed not to differ from females
  • growth at zero and very low feeding levels is probably caused by feeding history, which could not be taken into account

Facts

  • length-weight: Ww in g = 0.0043*(TL in cm)^3.09 (Ref: fishbase)
  • length-length: SL = 0.93 * TL from photo (Ref: fishbase)
