The small river in the countryside is crystal clear, the sun shines, and the fish shadow is thrown to the bottom. The fish are happily frolicking in the water, and two of the small blackfish, "Qi'er passed away, and the traffic was sudden", which was extremely naughty and cute. And this beautiful fish, rural people call it "grouper" in the vernacular.

grouper
"Grouper" belongs to the fin family, grouper genus. It is a warm-water offshore bottom precious fish. The fish body is oval, flattened, large head, short and blunt, large mouth, well-developed paved bone, body covered with small ctenophores, strong dorsal fin, body color can change with changes in the environment. Adults are usually 20-30 cm long. "Grouper" can be eaten, after cooking, the taste is extremely delicious, the meat is fat and tender, rich in nutrition, and is highly praised by people. More importantly, this fish has a very high nutritional value, rich in protein, vitamin A, vitamin D, calcium, phosphorus, potassium and other nutrients, is a low-fat, high-protein superior edible fish, by Hong Kong and Macao as one of the four fish in China.
Rural ponds
The nutrients of fish skin gel play an important role in enhancing the complete growth of epithelial tissue and promoting the synthesis of collagen cells, which is known as the fish of beauty and skin care. It is especially suitable for women to consume after childbirth. Live fish is sold to the Hong Kong and Macao markets and is regarded as a superior delicacy, and the supply exceeds demand. Therefore, its price is relatively expensive.
However, this fish not only has a high taste and nutrients, but also has high economic value. There are 12 species of grouper distributed along the coast of Fujian, among which the more common species with high economic value are red-spotted grouper, salmon-spotted grouper, cloud-veined grouper and reticulated grouper. Blue grouper, because of its body color is bluish brown, is also known as green spot, is more produced in Fujian, is a kind of grouper in the top product.
In fact, the scientific name of "grouper" is light lip fish, this fish is not large, generally two fingers large, often in the rural creek stone crevices flexible shuttle. I remember my friends and I used to touch this fish under the cracks in the stones as children and play hide and seek with them. Adults say that this fish is called grouper, or grouper, stone ditch, and I don't know if other places also call it that way.
These little guys have very high water quality requirements, and the creek at the foot of the mountain is where they like to stay. When I was a child, I was particularly naughty, and once caught "groupers" from the stream and put them all into their own wells, but after the family knew, they inevitably received a whip, but unfortunately there were few "groupers" that could survive later.
fish
This kind of beautiful and delicious fish used to be very common in the countryside. It is said that it was in the past, because the current countryside is no longer the countryside of memory, and the small river of the present is no longer the small river of the past. Now due to water pollution, electric fish, poisonous fish and other destructive behavior of human beings, the fish in the rural river have been electrified, poisoned almost, so that the "grouper" really lost its homeland, and gradually disappeared in the human world, there is not much to find, where can you still see ah! Fortunately, for some backward rural areas, human pollution is not large, and we can still see this fish from time to time.
Dear friends, don't you know if you still have this fish?
