I was just looking at that also. I kept reading it and reading it. Wasn't sure if I was just reading F and Celcius wrong or what! :lol:

:lol:
20c is 68F and 2c is 35.6F so the numbers are right just kind of oddly written!
Racing, shoes and fish. Nothing else matters. Oh, and bacon.

Yeah, back to front if they are correct. But 2C? Really?

The fish is from Thailand - I honestly can't believe 2 C will ever happen there

Most likely, the 20-2 C missed a digit, and perhaps the F value is automatically calculated?

Indeed, the database holds the centigrade values, and the fahrenheit is calculated from that.

I will try to find out what it should be and amend. It's likely just a "pressed the wrong key" type thing.

Edit: 24'C according to Fishbase, so amended as such.

By the way, the value must have been there for a very long time, since the value was 2.0, and our current system doesn't allow entering values below 4.0'C. And the current system has been in place for as long as I've been submitting updates - or close to, at least. I think that's more than 5 years.
