No, would depend on age of fish (is fish growing still?), temp of water (effect on metabolism, etc). A pound in is not a pound out. And sand beds complicate the equation. What gets retained in the sand vs bare bottom. What gets removed as solids in a filter sock if you use one?

This is complicated
