I note there is another, old comment about this, but I definitely there is something wrong with the distribution information on this page. I'm not a biologist, but I have come across what appear to be respectable biological sites which describe this fish as local to the island of Madeira in the eastern Atlantic. I was looking because I was served what purported to be locally caught Red Snapper in a restaurant, and it does look like this fish as opposed to some of the other species sold elsewhere as Red Snapper.

W = cLb? Are we joking? We need artificially to impose this pseudo-scientific formalism? It is common sense that weight varies as the cube of length: assuming the fish grows proportionately, then a fish twice as long is also twice as high and twice as wide = eight times the volume. DUH.
I hate pretentious efforts to make things appear more grandiose than they rightfully are.
FYI, by the same rationale, if a six-footer in good shape weighs 170, then a seven-footer weighs 270.
