Talk:Scissortail sergeant

Peer review for class
Overall pretty good article, I just made some minor organization and writing changes WolfyFTW (talk) 22:07, 20 November 2012 (UTC)

I thought you did a great job on this article—you definitely added the brunt of it, and described the fish’s behavior quite well. I just had a few questions that would hopefully contribute to this article. Regarding parental care, is it possible for you to mention how the male Scissortail Sergeant actually takes care of its brood, discounting the guarding phase? Also, how do the males change gold in color—do they change what they eat? I really liked the Female Choice section, and thought it was really interesting how they lay test clutches just to see if the male will be a good parent. I’m slightly confused about the first paragraph however—why are males less likely to eat their brood if its larger? I thought because it would take more energy for males to defend a larger brood, and because there are more eggs, the males would probably consume some of the eggs. I’m also confused as to why a larger brood size would lower the predation rate. I don’t see any issues with the Filial Cannibalism section. Great job! This was a great read. I didn’t see any grammatical errors, and I liked your sentence structures. Alexliu818 (talk) 21:27, 22 November 2012 (UTC)

You did a great job on the behavior section. I added some more links to both your section and other sections of the article. I also made some very minor edits to grammer and punctuation. As for getting the article to Good Article standing, several major sections should be added to cover physical characteristics, habitat, and other information about the species. The behavior section seems to be complete and in good shape. So hopefully after the article has been expanded and some more sections are added, you will have no trouble getting it to good article.
