Fig. 3. Energy loss (kJ day 1 fish 1) in gilthead sea bream, European sea bass and white grouper after starvation
for fish of different sizes at 23.5F2.3 jC. (Each data point represents the combined group of 10– 15 fish. The
BW is the geometric mean between the initial and final weights during starvation, and the corresponding
equations (Eqs. (7)–(9)) are presented in the text).
