What's good for fish is good for fishes: Interspecific consistency of growth, condition, and abundance among glacial lakes

Fish abundance and growth is regulated by a combination of bottom-up and top-down forces but many management techniques depend more heavily on the later. Here we evaluate if inter-system variation in nutrient loading and bottom-up forces play more dominant roles in control of abundance and growth of species across similar lakes than intra- and inter-specific compensatory effects. We aim to assess whether patterns of abundance and growth are consistent among fish species across.
