Carp is commonly known as carp abductor, hair, etc., belonging to the carp family. The body is flattened on the sides and the abdomen is round, the mouth is horseshoe-shaped, and there are 2 pairs of whiskers. The base of the dorsal fin is long, and both the dorsal fin and the fin have a thick, serrated spine. The sides of the body are golden yellow , and the leaves under the caudal fin are orange-red. Carp usually inhabit the bottom layer of rivers, lakes, reservoirs and pond swamps, and are mainly benthic animals.

It is adaptable, hardy, alkali-resistant and hypoxic-resistant. Eggs can be laid in running water or still water, and the spawning site is mostly in the aquatic grass, and the eggs adhere to the aquatic grass to develop. Common carp is one of the most diverse, widely distributed, cultured and produced freshwater fish. Sweet, flat and non-toxic. A thick greenish-brown fish in the Cyprinidae family, scientific name Cyprinis carpio. Native to Asia, it was later introduced to Europe, North America and other regions. Large scales, with two whiskers on each side of the palate, live alone or in small groups in ponds, lakes, and rivers with calm, aquatic and grassy mud bottoms. Omnivorous, digging for food often muddys the water, increases turbidity, and has adverse effects on many animals and plants. Therefore, carp is often considered unpopular in Europe and the United States, and it takes a lot of effort for Europeans and Americans to get rid of it. Because Europeans and Americans do not eat spiny carp, and carp have no natural enemies in North America and Europe, they were once rampant and considered harmful species. This also has a lot to do with the eating habits of Europeans and Americans.

In winter, the carp enters a state of hibernation, sinking to the bottom of the river and not eating anything. Spawning in the spring, females often lay large numbers of eggs on plants or debris in shallow water zones, and fertilized eggs hatch after 3 to 4 days. Carp grow quickly, reach sexual maturity around the third year, and can live for more than 40 years under rearing conditions. The average length is about 35 cm (14 inches), but the maximum can exceed 100 cm (40 inches) and weigh more than 22 kg (49 lbs). Carp are often farmed for consumption, especially in Europe and Asia, where large quantities of fish can be produced per acre of water. Two farmed species of carp, the mirror carp (with a few large scales) and the leather carp (almost scaleless), are domestically raised variants. The black crucian carp (Carassiuscarassius) is an undesirable European close relative of the carp.
