A man in England catches a giant goldfish!

Recently, the Champagne region of France. While fishing in France, Hackett, a 42-year-old British man, caught a giant "goldfish", known locally as carrot, a hybrid of grass carp and koi. Carrots have never been caught before. Hackett measured that it weighed about 67.4 pounds (about 71 pounds), and Hackett photographed it and released it.

This goldfish is about the size of a seven or eight-year-old child, and the "carrot" has a bright golden orange color, shining, so everyone affectionately calls it "carrot". "Carrot" is a German koi, commonly known as a leather carp, which is a hybrid with koi, which belongs to the evolution of carp, usually only single-tailed. According to zoologists, koi are animals that can grow very large, and as long as there is enough food and space, they can grow up forever. Koi can live up to 50-100 years, while wild koi can grow to 200-300 pounds at 100 years old.

Although goldfish belong to the carp family, it generally refers to ornamental fish evolved from wild red crucian carp, usually with more than two tails and rarely weighing more than 1 pound.

Interestingly, many people do not know that goldfish actually originated in China, as far back as the Jin Dynasty there was "red scale fish", the written record of goldfish, can be called China's national essence, has a history of more than 1700 years. There are more than 3,700 species of cyprinids in 210 genera worldwide. It is an ornamental fish popular in today's world, and is known as "living gem in water" and "swimming art".

Koi fish have a healthy physique, bright colors, varied patterns, and majestic swimming styles, which have ornamental and breeding value. Its body length can reach 1-1.5 meters. Koi are distinguished by different colors, patterns and scales. Among them, the butterfly koi was only successfully bred in the 80s of the 20th century, and is famous for its long, smooth fins, which are actually crossed between koi and Asian carp, not koi. Koi fish have one or more colors, including white, yellow, orange, red, black, and blue (a light shade of gray due to the black under the scales), which are dull or shiny. Although the pattern has endless variations, the pattern is a circular back stepped stone pattern on the top of the head. Fish scales can be present or not; large or small; Or there are wrinkles, like "diamonds".

I hope that all anglers, when they catch such a significant fish, they can also develop harmoniously with nature like Hackett and release them back to nature.
