How about this: Can anyone post some photos of the pharyngeal plate/teeth of a RES? We have a number of these fish that occur naturally in our ponds, (I caught 4 nice specimens this weekend), and I will open some up and take a look.....provided I know what to look for.

Ewest, thank you for your efforts. Much appreciated! smile

"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
