Abstract
► Activity patterns and field metabolic rates of bonefish were quantified. ► Acceleration transmitters, ethograms, and respirometry methodologies were used. ► Bonefish exhibit a number of strategies that maximize energy efficiency. ► Bonefish typically operate at between 40-60% of their estimated metabolic scope. ► Occasionally bonefish exhausted the majority of their metabolic scope.
