lbs and kg
editThe article states that the fish entered the aquarium at 69 kg and grew to 154 lbs. Two problem: 1) why mix these values? Use kg or lbs or both consistently. 2) 69 kilograms roughly equals 152 pounds so that isn't much growth at all. If those are those are the real values then that fact is not very interesting and should be removed.Nucleotide (talk) 11:40, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
protogynous
editThe article asserts that Bubba started as female and later became male, and defines it as being a protandrous hermaphrodite. But in the definition given in the hermaphrodite page protandry is said to be the condition of begining male and later becomicg female. One of the two afirmations (being protandrous or start as female) seems to be wrong. Someone with better knoledge than me in this matter should give it a look.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.53.98.80 (talk • contribs)
- You're absolutely right. Even the Shedd Aquarium states that Bubba was protogynous. --70.72.19.133 23:01, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
Cause of death
editWhat was the cause of death? Old age? Stress? I think the stress part would be unverifiable. --Kjoonlee 04:19, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
